Okay, I was trying to get some help with this with an old version but decided to upgrade to the newest version with hopes of someone helping me figure out how to do this...

I want authors to be able to delete their own topics regardless if the topic has replies. Can somebody help me?

This is what I tried:

In pop_delete.asp

I changed this:

if Reply_Status <= 1 then

To this:

if Reply_Status <= 100 then

My thinking was that if the replies were under 100 it would still let the author delete the topic.

Well, it didn't work. I know some of you may laugh at me but I know very little about writing code. Can somebody help?

THis is in fact a request for a mod. I'm moving it to the Mod W/O Code forum.

You want the authors to delete the topics irrespective of how many replies are posted to the topic. Correct?

What version you are currently using?

Yes. I want the authors to be able to delete their own topics, regardless of the amount of replies... (I'm using it as a shift swap board, not a discussion board. Once a shift swap is worked out, if authors could delete their own topics, it would save a LOT of time for the moderators)

I'm using version 3.4.03

If you can help I'd be ever so grateful.

It worked!!! You sir, are a GENIUS!!!

With your guidance on the above files I also had to modify forum.asp in a similar way (so the trash can appears on the topics page).

I changed this:

if ((Topic_Status > 0 and Topic_Author = MemberID and Topic_Replies = 0) or (AdminAllowed = 1))

To this:

if ((Topic_Status > 0 and Topic_Author = MemberID) or (AdminAllowed = 1))

VERY sweet. Thank you!!! If you e-mail me your address I'll send you a phatmass.com t-shirt for helping me. Thanks again.
