FA Self Destruct Thread

Ever wanted to move a thread to your forums trashbin etc? But wanted to show the reply to the thread starter? Then this is for you!

This hack can move a thread after a specific time period specified by the admin.

I have not used a cronjob as this doesn't have any specific time of deletion.

Required:
A forum to move all threads after time period... (Forums trashbin?)

Updates:
v1.0.3 Beta
- Now thread also closes on self destruct

v1.0.2 Beta
- Added reversal option

v1.0.1 Beta
- Added self destruct option in thread

v1.0.0 Beta
- Product
- Settings
- 3 Template Edits
- 2 File Edit

Can I set a timing for each thread? That would be good.
Thanks

Nice Idea and works fine on 3.6.4
Only a problem: On forum title, it's still says: Last post: subejct blabla by anyone. And the count post on this forum will be the same (should not since when the message was moved)
And on the forum where the message is move, post count is 0 and there is no last post by blabla (the moved message

According to the screenshot, I'd assume that it is within admincp in vB Options

ok i though this was a nice hack

but

when enable with my skin it makes the threads look all messed up and shit

and it was deleteing random threads for no reason

then today i uninstalled it

and took everthing out like i put it in

and now every thread on my site say

this thread will self destruct in

but there is no time

why would it say anything like that if all mods to install it have been uninstalled??

Hi! How are thing going with this Mod?

Is it possible to specify wich sub-forums do we want to use this hack?

Is it compatible with vb 3.7?

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much.

it is technically compatible with 3.7, you'll need to edit the forums and add the securitytoken line. I suppose I'll upgrade it for vb3.7 in the next week or so.

I get this weird error whenever I set a thread to self destruct:

Quote:

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

Pls help!

Hello

Your hack causes performance issues, this is because the plug-in at the hook: global_start

PHP Code:


		
			
global $vbulletin;

$vbulletin->db->query_write("UPDATE ".TABLE_PREFIX."thread SET forumid='".$vbulletin->options['fa_selfdest_forum']."', selfdest='0' WHERE ".time()." > selfdest AND selfdest!='0'");

You can't perform that query on every page load! it's pretty bad idea.

it's better to move this plug-in to the hook: cron_script_cleanup_hourly
