A new product by m2n is available: Archive Threads 3.0.2 - Manual & automated thread archiving


Archive Threads 3.0.2

Description

This addon has been working on AVForums for a number of years to allow users to archive their classified adverts. I decided to package it up and release it to the Xenforo community.

If you want users to be able to archive (move) their threads to a specific forum, then this addon is what you need.

User Interface​

Where archiving is available, there is an archive link at the top of a thread

When the Archive link is clicked, the user must confirm that they wish to archive.

Archiving will then move the thread to the pre-defined archive forum.

Setup​

Setting up archiving is done in the node edit page.

Forums > Nodes > [select the forum you wish to enable archiving for]

• Enable archiving with a tick box
• Select the forum you wish the archived threads to be moved to
• Specify the text for the Archive button
• Options to enable auto-archiving with user notification

Further down the forum edit page, there are the tick boxes to specify which prefixes can be archived.

• For the prefixes enabled for this forum, tick the additional tick box to enable archiving only for threads with each specific prefix.

Note that if no prefixes are selected, all threads can be archived. If any prefixes are selected, only those prefixes can be archived.

There are the usual permissions you would expect.
