Locking Thread Issue

[Kiki]

I was able to lock this particular thread but I was not able to unlock it.

@N F C unlocked it for me.
I locked it right back just to get these screenshots:

I double checked a couple other threads of mine and I am not having this issue on the threads that I have checked.

Could it possibly be because of the start date of this particular thread?

I just checked another one with a start date around the same time and I'm not having an issue there either... I'm guessing it has nothing to do with the start date.

It will be interesting to hear if other Project Managers are running into this same issue.

@Kiki, you wanna try locking and unlocking this one?

I think it's a time limit thing, I can't lock or unlock my old threads either. PFMS can only lock/unlock threads for 6 months?

PFMs, yes, six months. VPMs should be longer.

Sounds like a glitch. @Nifty-Chicken should be able to adjust this for Project Managers in the permissions.

I don't think there is a time-limit on locking and unlocking threads (at least not that I've seen).

Maybe the master @CarpCharacin knows?

The permission to lock / unlock own threads wasn't set for VPMs, but the one allowing them unlimited time to edit threads was. I tried setting the lock / unlock own threads permission to "yes" for VPMs, but I'm not sure if it'll help. It's odd that it isn't working, because VPMs are also in the PFM group (so they have the lock / unlock own threads permission) and the unlimited edit time permission of the VPM group should take precedence over the limit set for the PFM group. Maybe it's an add-on bug.
