Maybe I missed the obvious but how about being able to close a sale thread?
I have not found a way to do that, that will not allow users to reopen thread closed by moderators.
Oh, bummer. I like to close a sale thread once it's sold so it's easy to tell during search. Any other options?
Not yet.
MY suggestion would be to edit the 1st post to change the text to have "All Items SOLD" as the 1st line. Maybe bold and red too.
Alan, I don't know if this is an option but on the Grand Prix forum I am on thread starters are able to edit the title of the thread.
I'm not sure if that might cause other logistical issues though if you opened up that option.
Not a bad idea, can edit to add sold to the title?
You can do that. Edit the 1st post then select "go advanced"
It edits the title internally, but it doesn't edit it as shown on the forum page with thread listings.
Oh yeah, good call forgot about that. Something that has always annoyed me about editing titles. What's the point if you have to click on it to see the change? (for any edit not just sale threads)Quote:

I just edited the thread title and it did not update in the for sale forum. Only once I opened it.
Ah their was a time limit on it.
Try now.
I tried on one of my own sale threads and even a non sale thread. It still only changes the title to the thread internally. The forum still shows the original title.
I just came across this also.
Not seeing to much insight on the vbulletin forums so I opened a bug thread: BUG - Permissions issue with Admin Closed threads - vBulletin.org Forum
Pretty much what I'd observed and figured.
Blah, forgot that was just the .org site and not the main site.
Ok, I have a bug logged in the vBulletin Jira bug tracker: Login Required - vBulletin JIRA
