Posts Expire / Closing Threads - User 12076 - 2011-08-07

Hello,
I would like to give you my new plugin for MyBB called "Posts Expire / Closing Threads" Smile
This plugin provides posts expire time and auto-close threads function (users choose the time).

If user set post expire time, the post will be deleted.
If user set auto-close thread time, the thread will be closed.

Admin can configure:
  • turn on/off posts expire function
  • disallowed user groups for posts expire function
  • manage time options for posts expire function
  • change time format for posts expire notify
  • turn on/off auto-close threads function
  • disallowed user groups for auto-close threads function
  • manage time options for auto-close threads expire function
  • change time format for auto-close threads notify

Plugin automatically adds a task performed every 5 minutes. It is responsible for removing expired expired posts and closing expired threads.

don't have a need for this right now, but is a great option to have, will test her out and thank you.

Pretty cool feature but I don't really see a reason why a user would automatically want their thread closed unless of course it was a timed contest or such.


RE: Posts Expire / Closing Threads - lexy - 2011-09-11

nice plugin but can you fix it to work on european time +2 +1
Thanks

Exactly the reason why I might use it, though it's not really a problem to manually close battle threads.

Plugin uses build-in MyBB time functions. It's working fine with european time +2 or +1 (I have +1 in my county).

It isn't for "battle threads". It's for example for short users announcements, or "wiki forums" with short time to discussion about ex. tutorial.

It can be for battle threads if I want it to be.

You can change plugin task settings in tasks tab to run every minute.

It's not deleting nor closing expired posts.
I have checked from manual run, via cron and via task system.

Posts/Threads are still not touched.
