Add-on would need a rewrite.
Will do for next version.

Why is that needed if you're moving it to recycle? One would assume that your recycle forum is not open to members anyway.

Any news for that option?
It will be nice to have this option too, to move only one or some post to trash into New Thread (created in trash)

Why do want it to auto close unless your trash forum is open to everyone, other than that your making unnecessary calls.

Because you can do it in one move instead of selecting the move thread and scrolling to the forum you want to move it too ie recycle forum.

As much as this hurts to say, I have to agree with djbaxter on this. That is like closing the gate after the horse it already gone.

lol I know it doesn't seems logic, but the lock icon does prove to members that the thread is already closed. Its not for me but for idiots that send me emails saying they cant post in some areas cuz they don't have permissions set!

Another thing, I got a forum that has been around for 8 years from phpbb software and old management did like to close threads so the biggest forum here is the recyble bin. And for SEO i keep those threads visible to public as there is a big increase in traffic, Im doing my best to teach moderatos to not close just simple threads and just leave them alone until they die old (or until it someone makes a bump).

My archive goes from 2002 to 2010 and there is a lot of threads there that are important, like i said, and old admin though that by closing threads the database was going to be smaller and lower bandwidth etc etc. Very stupid! So i have to deal with this and that's why I want threads to be close automatically.

Simple suggestion to add the option, if not mods will still close them manually no problem!

So, you have your recycle bin open so members can see it?

On my forum, trash subforum is open for members (only to see, not to post new posts).

When some user make mistake (stupid post, spam...) in some thread, my moderators move that post into trash podforum in new topic with Title that explain what was the mistake and why is that post in trash.

So, I need option to move individual post(s) into new thread in Trash subforum too, not just to move threads
