Post Timers [library support]

support thread for plugin located at

Lets you add timers to threads in specific boards that when the timer runs out, it either submits the post immediately, or if they havent typed anything, hides the submit button.  optionally, you can put some text and graphic explaining their time ran out.

minimum time is 3 minutes (PB rules).

Wormo - I'd be interested in using this on a site which during missions/battle sequences I want to make it so people only have "limited" time. Would there be any way of making an option for a tick box on thread creation to enforce a timer on subsequent posts?

[Wormopolis]

It would require adding a thread key into the plugin

[Boy_Wonder]

I'd be happy with that if you'd be willing to do it

Im in the middle of Battleship and currently NOT stuck on something, so it might be a bit.

That's cool!

-slight lazy nudge no real rush was just wanting to make sure this didn't get forgotten about xD-

[Wormopolis]

no its fine to bump. Im just trying to work on the one thing at the moment.

[Boy_Wonder]

Yeh that's cool, that's why I stated it as a lazy bump xD

I installed the Post Timer plugin. I set the specific board but the timer does not show up in the "create post" button. Did I somehow miss a step? Thank you!

so apparently it only applies to replies. new threads dont get a timer. Im not sure why I wrote it that way... but I can change it (or make it optional I guess).

I am also going to add in the thread key to make it where OP can choose to make replies timed.
