End-User Options - Classifieds: Mark Thread as "Sold"

If you use this modification, please >> Mark As Installed, and consider Nominate for MOTM and Support Developer <<


What is this!?
This modification will allow you & your members (based on usergroup permissions) to mark a thread as "Sold". It will add the prefix "SOLD" to the thread title, and if set in the admincp - it will also close the thread. If you run a classified forum for your members this will give you a way to let users add a Sold prefix when the item is gone. Admins and mods can using to make items sold as well.

This is a modification of code provided by Eric.

Current Version

NOTE: This mod is marked "unsupported", but I'll try my best (as time permits) to help those who have marked as installed.

Hello I update to the 4.15 patch and I installed the mod again but I don’t get the sold option in the thread tool. Has anybody got this to work with the newer version thanks

[bandit022]

I am installing this mod for the first time and I also do not see the option to mark thread as "Sold" under the Thread tools. Running vb 4.1.5 Patch Level 1

I double checked to make sure I have the SHOWTHREADS template modified too.

Did you make it so that each usergroup can use the tool? Also, did you go into each forum you want to use it and mark it as being able to be used (the Prefix that is)?

I got it working. Thanks!

It was a bone-head mistake on my part. I already had a prefix set for my Classifieds section and moved the SOLD prefix to my Classifieds prefix set, thus it wouldn't show up in the Mark as Sold

YOU ARE A GOD.

I was looking for something like this <3

PM me and maybe I can see about getting you what you need for vB3.8

[venom2124]

Working to get a vB3.8 version tested. If all goes well I will post it up in the 3.8 mods section.
