Question about SOLVED

by TamDonCo Thu Jan 11, 2018 1:49 pm

Hi All

I never use this before. When the topic is solved, is it automatically DELETE topic or just mark it solved ?

Topics are not deleted.

When your topic has been solved, ensure you mark the topic solved.

Do you mean on the support forum? If yes, the mods move the solved topics to the archives.

When your topic has been solved, ensure you mark the topic solved.

Thanks , good to know

I may use this feature for another purpose

My members want to delete his/her own topic but forummotion.com does not allow that. I think to use solve button to mark "delete" instead of "solved" , so I know and I can delete it for them

you can see it so if a member makes a post and there is no reply it will go to the trash can or if i remember right if you dont make a trash can then it will be deleted and never found again.

my advice is to have all older posts sent to a trash can where if the member wants the post again they can ask by pm to have it added back like they do here.
