Forum Module - Limit Topic Time - Auto Delete Topic

    Hi all. I have the Forum module installed on one of my client’s sites. They are using the forum like a classifieds section. So basically members can log in and post a new topic (item for sale) and people can talk about it right there. No ecommerce - just talking about the item.

    The question I have is - Can I limit the time that the topic is live (visible). So if someone adds a new topic (item for sale), can it set up the module to automatically delete that topic entry after 180 days? After that point they must create a new topic.

    Make sense? Thanks for any help in advance.

    Nothing out of the box is available for the forum like this. You could check devot-ee.com but I don’t think there is one.

    Doing this would be possible if you were using Channels instead of the Forum Module as you can set expiry dates

    Other than that maybe contacting somebody from our ProNetwork who could develop something for you
