    Well, Threads are not auto-closing after the sale has ended even when I check the Auto-Close Box. I have to get it done by Reporting my post. Please Fix it :)

    Or is there some buffer after which threads gets closed?

    EDIT: Its been 4 hours since the sale ended and the thread hasn't auto-closed yet.

    This is *ONE* thread: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1518918
    None of my threads auto-close, but then I used to think maybe I forgot to check the box. But this time I am sure that I did check the box and now I am 99% sure that I did it on other threads too.

    Not sure... the backend is showing it was never tagged as needing to be auto-closed. I double checked other threads, and there are a bunch that are showing with the auto-close tag, so I know the field isn't getting lost somewhere. I also just created a thread in the same forum using the same options you had set, and I checked auto-close and it showed in the backend database as being tagged as such.

    I think I may have figured it out though. If you set it, but then preview your thread AFTER you set it, it was reverting back to a disabled input field, which doesn't get used when submitting the form. I fixed it now.
