Hi!

I want to use FUDforum as a light-helpdesk and if a problem - a topic - is solved, I want to set it's state to "finished" and then the users can't reply (open) to this thread again.

Is there a way in standard-FUDforum to lock several topics in a forum, so that "normal" users can't create new replies in this thread? If this "locking" is only available for admins/moderators/... this is also ok.

Best regards

Steff

Locking is only avaliable to Moderations & Admins and users who have been explicitly granted permission to lock/unlock topics via the group manager.

You could move a "finished" thread to a separate forum (let's say, "Resolved issues") which could be set as "read-only".

Hey - that's a nice idea.

Easy - but I never thought about that.

Thanx

Steff
