  About this resource

  Allows users to archive (move) their threads (with specific prefixes) to a designated forum. Option to change the prefix when archived. Also threads can be automatically archived after a set number of days since the last post.
  
  Allows users to archive (move) their own threads to a predefined different forum.
  Archiving is prefix dependent. I.e. to archive threads, they must have a specific prefix and admin can set which prefixes are archivable.
  Admin have the option to change the prefix to a different prefix when threads are archived.
  
  This addon has been working on AVForums for a number of years to allow users to archive their classified adverts. Threads with prefixes For Sale, For Trade, Wanted and Deal Agreed can be archived and as they are archived, their prefix is changed to Archived.
  I decided to package it up and release it to the Xenforo community.

  Where archiving is available, there is an archive link at the top of a thread.
  
  

  

  
  
  When the Archive link is clicked, the user must confirm that they wish to archive.
  
  

  

  
  
  Archiving will then move the thread to the pre-defined archive forum.
