Topic Closed

Hi Hailey,

Yes, if you look on the left side of the topic title you'll see cartoon style dialogue bubbles on most of them. Now for locked topics you'll see a padlock in place of the bubbles.

Cheers,

Hy Hailey,

Here is a screenshoot with a closed topic.



Go to China forum and tell me if you are able to see the "lock" icon.

I agree with Hailey- even your screenshot doesn't show a lock that I can see.

my guess is that the ones that don't have the reply link are closed, but it's really not the most obvious indication.

Maybe the color of the link shouldn't be the same.

We'll find something, thanks

I see it but it is not clear.
Maybe a color for the padlock is more suitable, like the orange pin for the sticky topics.
Red?

Press and hold 'Ctrl" down and hit F5 to clear the cache.

Try also a 'Disk cleanup' in System Tools.

yep, I reported that issue yesterday. It will be fixed soon, thanks Hailey

Hi Hailey,

Has you been able to resolve the problem yet?

I've noticed that Team has now changed the color of the padlock on closed topics to a shade of terra cota red. Has that shown up on your forum yet?

Hi James,
Now that you got your Brazilian ID, why do you have to care about anything else? 

Up to three weeks ago, if you clicked on the thread title link and the thread was closed, you would go to the topic page and immediately notice that the {quote} and {reply} buttons were missing from all posts.

You did not have to scroll down at the very bottom of the thread to discover you can't reply.
Now we got an orange colored padlock and when you click on the thread title link (which is dimmed) you get a pink band at the top of the first post saying ‘Topic closed'. Problem solved.

I found something interesting.
If you go to https://www.expat.com/forum/viewforum.php?id=4 the second thread may be recognized as ‘closed' by the title being dimmed, but the orange padlock is replaced by an orange pin since the topic used to be labeled as ‘sticky'.

These little bugs are fine with me considering the ‘fee' I paid to be a member here: $0.00.

To me there is nothing wrong with it John and you are right this is an exceptional.
The sticky topic from James about dating is to inform everyone, special the new members
The reason why it is closed  I guess, because this is a rule and no need to discuss it.
