Thanks for releasing this for the public.

What does means unmaintained ?

What does means unmaintained ?

It means that you may download and use the addon but the author does not plan to update it to add new features and/or fix bugs.

With many simple addons that are designed to do just one thing, that's generally not a problem.

That's exactly what I would like to know. Thanks

Sad, that we can't set up user group permissions.

Tell me what for and I'll implement it

Can you also add option to close thread after several days of last post? i.e. 1 month after last post have been made in thread.

 

[Alan_SP]

Yes, great suggestion from @Mian Shahid .

Is there also option to set all threads per node to be auto-lockable unless manually made "normal" threads? Or can that be added?

BTW, nice work, thanks for it.

EDIT: Oh, and yes, if making all threads autolocked can be done retroactively, i.e. to lock all old threads in selected nodes, if they meet wanted criteria, e.g. last post older than a month, it would be great (on my forum we don't like necroing old threads that much).

Very good job, au lait.

But you should remove the "Unmaintained" tag, because your support and new features comes every update.

Great work

That is more in the vein of AndyB's Auto lock/Auto close add ons, though they could be combined!

That sounds like proper draft saving.

I did not have this happen, albeit I am using a more recent version of the add-on than the one above. That said, there's not much reason why the add-on should do anything of the sort. It handles the status of the thread being locked. Maybe you have another add-on that's causing that bug?

No,. I've checked already all addons, and these which I recently installed. Could be an conflict with other addons. Since I've deleted the addon, I don't have this issue.
