Re-linking text frames after splitting with a script

I used a script to split the chapters in my book, but I see that some have been split one frame too late. How can I re-link these text frames so the chapters are once again whole?

Thanks for this, I'm new to scripting. How do I create a script file using this code?

 


Just copy the code and paste into a plain text editor. Save as StorySplitter.jsx and install.

Are you still in a single document, or are the chapters individual files?

Relink the incorrect splits manually then spliot again at the correct frame. Not sure what script you were using, but the BreakFrame.jsx sample script included with the program will divide the story at the end of the frame you have selected when you run it.
