Hello - just a quick follow up question on this, when will the auto delete be turned on? I'm trying to clean off my website and pass it on to a friend but I want to make sure the lockbox is empty first.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Next week.

Seriously? You can't perceive of circumstances where we would want basic functionality to remove posts permanently?
Here's one. We're using the site for purposes or groups other than originally intended, since we paid for the asset and have evolving needs. So we have new administrators and moderators that we don't care to see old nonsense that by nature has been purged.
How is it that a design need you posted about back in April has not been resolved yet?
The safety net is that posts go to the lockbox... Done. Now if we choose to permanently remove it from the vault... So be it. Ask for triple verification if it makes you feel better, but give us the ability to purge.

Sometimes things just take longer than we planned or hoped. There are ways in the app to control who can see the Lockbox and it's not visible by anyone other than the site creator by default.
The 7.5 release (out in a week or two) has a manual Lockbox purge. That functionality is complete and in the codebase and ready to rock. We're still testing the automated process to make sure it is 100% accurate and performs well. We hope to have it live in 7.5 too though.

I am having issues with my Lockbox. I am using it for its purpose but I have set it to delete posts after a week of being in lockbox and unused threads that have been deleted, falling into that lockbox category are staying there on 1<day or wahtever it is, NOT getting deleted. Now i have almost 100 OLD threads that are unused, unviewed just sitting there, as they have been for MONTHS. They aren't filtering and deleting like they're supposed to? Anyway, that's what I assume the auto pruning is.. after the five days it gets rid of them out of lockbox?
Other forums are auto pruning and sending unused threads to the lockbox but lockbox just gets more and more full of useless stuff and nothing happens to it.
Is that how it's supposed to work or do i need to only use the manual purge every time?

Auto prunes for lockboxes don't do anything. You need to manually run the purge periodically.

I have posts in there over a year old now.
Would it be possible to have the newest posts first, like the rest of the forum. Apposed to the newest posts last?
Each deleted post has a timer on it. The timing is currently 45 days then they are auto deleted. There is no manual delete.

Hello all,
Manageing my foruns, i´ve deleted the 'lockbox' forum and moved the inside topics to a new one. So far so 'good'. But now since it was a functionality forum, i can't delete anymore forums or even the topics inside the new forum that has the old topics/posts (like i said previously) bc the system says that the 'lockbox' forum doesn't exist (wich is true, hehe).
I've tryed to creat a new 'lockbox' but the system doesnt take it as the 'system lockbox and the problem about not being able to delete posts/foruns continues...
I´d love some help ...

Your lockbox wasn't deleted. It has been set to Moderators [Hidden]. So users with moderator level access will be able to see it, which would be the Site Owner and any designated a Moderator or in a permission group that has access to that forum.

Hmm.. that should be fixed now. Do you mind PMing me some info on how you deleted the lockbox? You shouldn't be able to delete lockbox forums.
