Determine the fate of your forum after your absence

Hello everyone today

This trick allows you to hide your forum after you are gone

Who knows, you may die suddenly, or there may be a reason that prevents you from entering the forum

On the Forumotion forums when you are absent for more than six months
Your forum is handed over to someone other than you

Maybe the other person messes with your forum after you're gone
---------------------------

You should hide your forum after you are gone

Add the following code to the overall_header template

Code:

 <script>
$(function() {
    var currentDate = new Date();
    var startDate = new Date("2024-06-04");
    var endDate = new Date("2070-06-06");

    if (currentDate >= startDate && currentDate <= endDate) {
        $("body").hide();
    }
});
</script>

In the code, the start date of the disappearance is 2024-06-04
The end date of the disappearance is 2070-06-06

If she does not die and does not leave and reaches the date 04/06/2024

You need to change the forum disappearance date to 2024-07-04

Therefore, every time you reach the disappearance start date, you must renew it
Until you die or leave, and after you leave, your forum will disappear

----------------------------------------
I wish you guidance and success from God

And if you die before the date you could also do it with the forum

Hello @jucarese
I pray to God to give you a good life before you die 

Yes, this code is useful for those who were unable to delete their forum before their death

 Hello  @Mihai 
Also your idea is good

God reward you

I really do not think this is a good idea.  If the founder is the only staff on a forum, the forum would basically become abandoned.

Hi

Well, this trick could be good as an improvement for "holidays mode" and "under construction mode", because it only let's you put it under construction 7 days and holidays mode only 24 hours...

By adding this code, you can remain your forum private for much more time if you wish

On the other hand, some important things:

On the Forumotion forums when you are absent for more than six months
Your forum is handed over to someone other than you

Hiding the forum content will not avoid that someone could request to become the new founder of your forum if you haven't done log-in for more than 6 months. Forumotion Staff can see the last founder connection without need of accessing the forum.

Maybe the other person messes with your forum after you're gone

If you have active Staff on your forum, Forumotion will not make any founder change without the permission of all the Staff members, even if you (as founder) has not logged into the forum for a long long time, as the forum is not considered as completely abandoned. Then, one of the Moderators you trusted in the past could ask to become the new founder, so the forum would keep safe.

hi SLGray
Your point of view is good, but perhaps some people would prefer to hide the forum after his departure

Looks good too

Probably no one will apply for a hidden forum
Because if the forum was hidden for a long time
It will be deleted from search engines

Unfortunately, this has become rare these days
