We have a problem with the archiving of old forums.

From always we have the archive of forums that have not had movement in the last 5 years.

For a cleaning reason I had to unarchive a lot of forums to hide or delete blocked posts because if the forum is archived it does not allow it to be hidden or unblocked posts.

To unarchive them I have done it through the AdminCP, removing them from the list of forums to archive.

Now, I have the problem that once the cleaning is done, I put them back in the list of forums to be archived in the AdminCP, but it doesn't archive them.

I have seen that in the moderation actions of a forum the option "Allow this topic to be archived" appears, but this action is one by one.

 

Is there a way to bulk re-archive unarchived forums?

Thank you.

Could I please confirm its done this on every topic? Generally it would only be on items you have manually unarchived

Thanks Marc.

We have done the unarchiving in all the threads of a forum from the AdminCP.

Now we wanted to reapply the archiving rule.

Please could you upgrade to the latest release first of all. If you are then still having issues, I can get someone to take a closer look for you

I have version v4.7.6, I have my own design on the home page and somewhere internally, do you know if I update it to the latest version 4.7.8 will something change in the design?

If you take a look at the following page, this will show you the theme changes between these versions (and any version if needed)
