What does it look like?

 

[Jon W]

I'll post a screenshot later.

Same feature as WHT?

 

[Kintaro]

For "old" you mean x days from the creation or x days from the last reply?

Last reply.

 

[tsak76]

this is for creation date or last reply ?

I've never understood what forum users or admins had against old threads. Isn't the idea of a forum to facilitate conversations? Why should it matter if a user adds a reply to a thread that's, say, a year old?

Last reply.

The addon uses thread.post_date not thread.last_post_date when determining if the thread is "old".

 

[Kintaro]

Is it normal that if I disable this addon the warning remain visible, and that the warning is calculated from the thread's create date and not to the last reply.

 

[Kintaro]

am I the only one with this problem?

 

[Jon W]

You shouldn't see any warning if the add-on is disabled. Sounds like your template cache is not being rebuilt properly. Do you use any special caching on your server?

 

[Kintaro]

I use APC but I reset it and the warning is still there...
EDIT: My fault! I double checked in the Admin Control Panel and the addon was still activate. I was sure I deactivated it, maybe I closed the tab before it was done.

The other problem, as @Xon said, is still there, it doesn't calculate from "last post date".

Great addon. However, it would be nice if it didn't display on Locked or Stickied threads.

 

[ogirginc]

Does it support 1.4?

 

[Xon]

Does it support 1.4?

It's working fine for me on XF 1.4

 

[AndreaMarucci]

Just a question. I've other addons from you installed. Can I replace the old folders with the new ones with the same name? I mean these
Deferred
Deferred.php
Install
Install.php
Listener

It shows the old thread warning for the locked threads too. IMO, it is unnecessary because it is locked and users can't write anything even if they wanted...
