XF 2.0 Close / Open their own threads

[coolbreeze86]

Hi all,

How to give permissions to a specific usergroup to Close / Open their own threads in a particular forum.

Thank you

There isn't a permission which allows members to open/close their own threads only. There is a suggestion for this to be added to the core, like the first post of the suggestion thread: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/permissions-restore-own-thread-lock-unlock-own-thread.8263/ but who knows if that will ever be added.

Until then there is this addon, https://xenforo.com/community/resources/user-essentials.6272/

Just following this one up.

Is there now an option for specific usergroup to Close / Open their own threads without installing an add on, I cannot seem to be able to find it.

There is not.

There is not.

Thank you Brogan.

Does anyone know if an add-on has been developed ?

Do you mean this one?

Seems a bit complicated. I just want the users to have the ability to lock/unlock their own threads.

One trick pony add-ons aren't real popular things. The add-on you pointed out seems to do exactly what you want. Yes, it may take a few minutes to configure, but then as your site/needs grow, it will probably have some functions you can use in it also.
