I need help coding in something i saw on another forums. It was something like "This thread has been close by (moderator name)"
It was nice and i was impressed.Anyone knows the coding for it?

Hi,
Are you talking about forum,this can be done using a forum builder which is used to create forums

In forums, for instance, vBulletin, template-restricted variables are declared. Example given:

PHP Code:

$post[musername] 


Would be the variable to display the username and its markup. Of course, it's only an example.

You'll have to be specific which forum(?) software you're talking about, and then we may be able to assist you in the matter.

This being the HTML forum

<span>This thread has been closed by (insert name)\</span>

I don't know it correctly. But my opinion is that, In your message, i can understand that you will have to type the thread "This thread has been close by (moderator name)". It can be done through only admin side.

Wouldn't it just be editing the post?

Although that may and can be done - regardless of what the OP meant - wouldn't it be better to make it dynamic through usage of, for instance, PHP? It would seem like a pain to me to edit the name every single time.

...or you could check if the thread is closed, check who closed, it, and edit the title of that thread to be this thread has been closed by (insert name). Head on over to the PHP forum if you want to know more. HTML is strictly content, you can't do anything good like that with it.

I think

<span>This thread has been closed by (insert name)\</span>

is not enough.

There should be some php code there for the name might change.
