Does the usergroup need to have specific permission to close/lock a thread? I'm using this mod and it works fine, but when a member marks their thread as "SOLVED" it doesn't automatically lock it, even though I have that setting checked.

When I test it it works fine, but as admin I have permission to close threads.

please make it work with the vbulletin prefixes... with some way...

it would be rly helpful

I tried to Import the product and got an error message "Invalid File Specified"
Its the bitfield_solvedthread.xml file.

I searched a little and got posts that says this is due to a confusion between products and plugins. But I have done exactly as specified here. What did I miss out? :(

bitfield_solvedthread.xml is neither a product nor a plugin, it is meant to go in your includes/xml folder you haven't uploaded the files properly.

I have uploaded the files and installed the product but when i go to Set options in AdminCP > vBulletin Options > Solved Threads, i only get 3 options and not 5 options.

Thats correct there are only 3 options, any other options are when you are setting your prefix groups.

good job!

This is odd, yes. It happens on and off for me it seems. I've not been able to find any real reason for it unfortunately.

That's strange, the code doesn't check for permissions to lock - hmm... I wonder if the thread datamanager does - I'll have to look into that.

And thank you Simon for helping :)

I just installed this, thank you!

I had this too on my 3.8.6 forum, this is solved when going to the prefix manager.
Edit the prefix where no text is present, just click "save" and the text appears instantly everywhere.

It seems normal to me that users that don't have permission to close their own threads, also can't use the automatic closed option from this mod.

Right on! :up: That's what I had to do. Took me a minute to figure it out. This needs to be added to the install instructions. Even an experienced board owner would get jammed up by that one step not being there.
