Hey all,

DragonByte Tech is proud to present yet another addition to our portfolio, thanks to our end of year bonanza of free modifications: Threads Auto Close, available immediately for vBulletin 4.x.x.

Threads Auto Close?
Threads Auto Close is a professional forum management mod, allowing administrators to automatically close threads after X post or X replies.

Threads Auto Close is the ideal product to eliminate the bumping of older threads.

Threads are not closed in the database, they appear as if they were closed. So, if you deactivate or uninstall the mod, threads appear as open again.

Note: Threads that are marked as closed by this mod via the Auto Close After X Replies setting, can not be reopened due to the fact that they have reached the max replies you set. Only way to re open them is to increase the reply limit or disable that feature.

Note: This was created on vB v4.2.0 but I imagine it will work on any 4.x series.

The mod is available here, Threads Auto Close DragonByte Tech - vBulletin Mods & Addons or here vBulletin.org.

If you like the product you can show your support by nominating it for mod of the month here, [DBTech] Threads Auto Close v1 (vB4) and also please rate it to help cancel out the users who 1 star our mods.
