View Full Version : Automatic Pruning

Seeing as there is already an option that records how many views a thread gets, would it be possible to record when a thread was last visited, and if so, would it be possible to have an option to automatically prune a thread after it has not been read for a certain amount of days, weeks, months etc.

Then have an option in the CP with a drop down menu as to how long vBulletin should wait before pruning the threads.

Did I make this clear enough?

Nobody else think this would be a good option?

While this would be a good idea, it needs to be done on a forum by forum basis. Plus it has to have the option of pruning or archiving the posts. I can see a lot of forums who don't want to get rid of old posts.

When 2.0 comes out and I have time I want to make something very similar to this by use of a cron job.
