I would very much like to have a publish date and time for a new topic.
On my forum, there are monthly challenges, and the author would like to be able to write such monthly topic in good time and then mark it to be published say at 00:00 the 1'st day of next month.
Such a Topic will be visible for users with the right permission, but can only be viewed and not replied.
When the publish time is exceded, then the Tpoic will turn into a normal topic, vissible for all and anyone can reply to it.
I know that this could be done semi automatic by making a draft in good time, and then load the daft and submit it at the desired time.
But for example tomorrow, the author of the monthly challenges may not be well fit for doing this just after midnigt newyears evening
I searched, and found a few other Tpoics about this, e.g. this:
viewtopic.php?t=2367561
I don't really buy the "phpBB is not a CMS", come on, phpBB is a great forum platform and what makes it great are all the wonderful features and extensions.
If someone would make a "Publish date and time for a topic" extension, I at least would be extremely happy.
Happy New Year everyone!!!
