Support Forums · **Released**: 10-22-2006

Description
This little number will take any specified forums (subforums optional) and modify them to seperate "open issues" from "closed issues". It's great for tracking which support issues are actually resolved.

The key here is letting users close their own threads. Under forum permissions, make sure you let users do this or it loses most of its usefulness.

I suggest having a sticky thread letting users know they CAN close their own threads. However, this is mostly covered by a SHOWTHREAD edit which will tell one of three messages to the viewer:

Staff - "This issue has been resolved! The thread starter may re-open it if he wishes."

Thread Starter - "This issue has been resolved! You may re-open it if you are still having problems."

Other Users - "This issue has been resolved! If you have a similar issue, please create a new thread." (link)

Planned Updates
-Button to open/close thread
-$colspan option for modified threadbits
-Phrased
-Forum Chooser instead of using ForumIDs

Yes, it's still acitvated. It worked untill the update to vB 3.6.10

RedGTiVR6 · #**166** 07-16-2008, 02:42 PM

you might try reading through the thread to see if others had the same issue with 3.6.10.

In my readings I recall running across a few posts, however, since I'm not running 3.6.10, I didn't pay any attention to them.

This might have been asked already but I don't have time to read through 11 pages of posts to find out...

Any chance of a new screenshot, since http://www.vblogetin.com/images/scre...ed_threads.jpg is no longer available?

Wow. I forgot I even wrote this. Sorry - I don't have a screenshot, but I'm sure someone here will be able to post a link or take one for you.

What's the demand like for me updating this?

Thanks

The code behind the mod is fine... just need to change the template output. Something along the lines of:

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['thread_seperator']">
<br /><li style="background-color:#E36E00;color:#ffffff;font-weight:bold;padding:2px;">{vb:raw thread.heading}</li><br />
</vb:if>

At the top of threadbit will work.
