I'm using myBB as a forum for problem resolution. Once an problem is resolved the thread is "closed". I thought there might be a check box in the Forum Display options to hide closed threads, but did not find one. Is it easy to add that option? Or is there a plug-in I can use that will hide closed threads but still find them via Search?

Btw, this is a lovely product!

Thanks.
You could use template conditionals. Then you could hide the thread in forumdisplay.

If it is only in the showthread page that you want to hide closed threads from you could write a plugin to do it. Conditionals will work but don't contemplate things like pagination, etc.
