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.

Okay a little confused as to what you are asking or what is wrong. It sounds like you are trying to say the prefix is not showing up.

If you let me know what the site is I can try and take a look? But need more details on problem.

Hello thanks great mod. And it seems to be working ok for 4.14, but I was wondering is there anyway I can change the color for the prefix , I have a dark site so the text is also in a dark color, can we do something that can stick out like the color red or bright blue, I am not using the original template , thanks

sorry i see it works in differant color in the orginal template, i guess this opens a can of worms to get it to work with the new template

Should be able to change the color by using HTML coding in the rich text section under edit in prefix's.

use this and the *Title (Rich Text)* that will make it red

<b><span style='color:#FF0000;'>[SOLD]</span></b>

Searching for what?

AdminCP --> Thread Prefixes --> Thread Prefix Manager --> Then you'll see {EDIT} {DELETE] {EDIT PERMISSIONS] Across from SOLD, Click Edit

Next look for Title(Rich Text) In that box input <font color=Red><b>Sold</b></font> or you can change the font color to what ever you want and click save. Now the prefix will show what ever color you made it.

I hope that helps.
