I need a mod to auto-close all threads in only one section of my forums after the user posts it. This is for a files section of my forums and I do not want any replies to the files threads at ALL. Can someone help me or direct me to the proper mod?

thanks.. I am using 3.6.2 btw

I have yet to use this but can't you do this with standard forum permissions? Forums & Moderators > Forum Permissions > (choose group) > Post / Thread Permissions:
Can Post Threads (Yes)
Set the rest in that column to (No) except for "Follow Forum Moderation Rules" which should remain Yes unless you want posts moderated.

yes I am already doing that as we speak.. I have ti set so registered users cannot "reply" to other peoples posts in that section only. They can reply to their own posts is all.

Thing is I want it to be "closed" so that users don't come to me saying why can't I post in this section.. and then I have to tell them.. at least if its closed, they can read that and understand that better.. thats why I was asking.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
