XF 1.3 Thread Lock Button

[Connor Smith]

My staff on my forum have been asking if we can add a "Lock Thread" button to the top/bottom of the thread they are viewing. I was wondering how I would go about adding this.

Thanks.

There is already one at the top.

I know that, I was asking if there was a way to add a button, that locks the thread. Currenty it says 'open'

Uncheck it and it locks it.

Yes, I am aware of that.
I was asking something completely different.

You could simply edit the template that gives the private controls (I'd have to look to find which one it is - but think it's the post template) and repurpose the code of the template that gives the drop down and allows the open checkbox to it (think it's thread_list_item_edit) and massage it to be a separate control.

I'm not to good with XenForo coding. I'll just leave it if thats that case.
