Quick Close/Open Thread (with reason) · **Released**: 06-24-2002

This hack will allow you to [high]close/open a thread[/high] in 2 ways:
1. By entering a reason, while viewing the thread.
Let's see you view a thread and you find some post that is irrelevant to the content of your board (advertising, spam, etc).
The normal way is to go and reply and right after to close the thread.
Not anymore. Once entered the reason, vBulletin will post that message and close the thread for you automatically.
To re-open it, it goes the same way.

2. By adding an attachment or special note to your new thread or reply.
Let's see you want to open a new thread, make an attachment and close rightaway the thread.
All you have to do is check the box related to Close/Open Thread. vBulletin will post that message and close the thread for you automatically.
For new replies goes the same way. By simply checking the box, vBulletin will post your reply and Close/Open the thread.

[high]ADVANTAGES[/high]
- no queries or database modifications are needed

im sorry that last post was not supposed to be there. I did have one problem when i installed this hack. I get a script error when i hit to reply in the quick reply box, and i hit ok on the window that tells me about the error and it goes thru and works fine. any ideas on what needs changed to fix that error.

TECK: A request! I have your quick reply with close/open checkbox hack installed, I think it's great however sometimes someone might just want to close a thread, without replying, and quickly

Is it possible to make a modified version of this hack, so that it's only on showthread, maybe like this:

In Quick Reply Box, [I'm using FireFly's Template], under the open/close switch, have another switch which says "Close Thread Without Replying" and if the thread is already closed, "Open Thread Without Replying"

If this is possible, it would be great

those questions should be in Requests forum. it has nothing to do with my hack.
