Description :
Auto close threads based on last post date.
The Options page allows setting the number of days since the last post and the forums that will be effected.
This add-on is very useful for classified forums so that users don't post on old classified threads.
This add-on is also very useful for technical support forums (aka ticket forums). The add-on has an option to include a reply when the thread is closed explaining why it was closed.
(Example of Options page) :
Features :
Q: How do I change the Auto reply message?
A: Edit the autoclose_auto_reply_message phrase.
Q: When does the Cron entry run?
A: Once per day at 12:00 AM UTC time.
Auto close v1.6 changes:
If the Prefix ID in the options page is set to 0, then any existing thread prefix will remain as is.
Auto close v1.7 changes : Removed maximum of 50 for the Limit in the options page.
Auto close v1.8 changes : Updated PHP code so that 'setIsAutomated' code is correctly placed.
Auto close v1.9 changes : Added code to prevent occasional null condition error.
