Locking Thread Issue

[Kiki]

Very strange! Just you and just that one thread?

I keep meaning to check more that the few threads I checked but I haven't. It's not a big deal. I started the thread for NFC to see if others were having the same issue

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.

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.

Thanks for looking into this! Can you lock and unlock your older threads now?

I am able.

 

[Kiki]

Quit locking and unlocking
Thatll fix it

 

[Kiki]

Correct, so it's duplicative to have PFMs and VPMs both having the access and shouldn't change anything... unless it's a bug bug


Great, thanks!

I can not unlock it.

I still cannot unlock it...the thread in post one.View attachment 2760401

Strange.

@casportpony can you go to the thread and click on "moderator actions" to see if anything has been logged?
