Yes, it has been disabled. But any posts that were created when the 3-month rule was in place will still close after 3 months (I can always re-open them, though).

This is an ongoing and unresolved issue for now that interests me particularly. I would like to see it reopened in case of future developments or even a solution like the one dangled before us in the thread. We always have hope…

As the creator of the thread, you should be able to edit your original post to update the information. Not the best solution but something at least.

Thanks box. Yes, I can edit the original post - and I’ll probably do that too.
Sometimes though I want to post a new post. It really depends on the content.
