Is there a way to auto archive a topic?

[Avraham (Avraham Byers)]

I saw this post, but my question is a bit different in nature.

Is there a way to:

1. Automatically archive or delete a topic after a certain amount of time – in a specific category (not across the whole platform?)

2. Give the option to someone who creates a topic to choose how long they want the post to live in discourse before it is archived or deleted?

Thank you!

P.S. How does the search work here in discourse? In other words, how does the search choose what comes up first?

안녕하세요,
1번 질문에 대해서는 여기서 도움을 드릴 수 있습니다:

Topic Timer Archive option

Continuing the discussion from Unlist option in Topic Timer: Yes, exactly, why not archive? I’d like to propose an archive option in the Topic Timer. Use case: Make a competition where people can vote and close voting period automatically (archiving prevents voting). Actually I’d need this option right now and expected it in the drop down. I’m surprised that it is not included in the options.

주제를 생성한 사용자에게 아카이브되거나 삭제되기 전에 포스트가 discourse에 얼마나 오래 머물고 싶은지 선택할 수 있는 옵션을 제공하시겠습니까?

Allow regular user to archive (or close) their own topic?

Is there an easy way to allow regular users to be able to archive a topic they started? I don’t think this feature would be abused for what I’m considering using discourse for. For example for a buy and sell category, where the item is sold, or maybe a category discussing events, where the event is over, it would be good if the original poster could archive the topic themselves. A point in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks!

또한, 팀이 얼마나 많은 지원을 제공할지는 확실하지 않습니다.

좋은 하루 보내세요

Another feature I think Discourse could consider is auto-archive topics when they’re moved to a specific category.

So for our site, we’ve created a public category called “Archive” where we’re working to move old topics into it & archive them. We’ve also set the security settings so that only admins & moderators could create & reply to topics within said category.

This way, we believe, would tidy up our forum considerably whilst allow members to access old topics/post easily when needed.

Nevertheless, the current process of archiving topics is still quite tedious:

• Step 1: Search/Filter old, inactive topics from either each category’s topic list or in Advance Search.
• Step 2: Select all topics & move to said category.
• Step 3: Select all topics again to archive them.
