What is a locked topic?

If you read a topic and notice there is an icon that says the topic is LOCKED, it means the administrator or moderators have closed that topic to replying. It effectively makes the topic ‘read only’ so you can’t add a new reply. This is often done on news announcements and important messages where feedback is not warranted. You may also see this on posts managed by moderators as well.

A locked topic is a post that does not allow replies. Once The Knot locks a topic no more replies are permitted.

A topic can be “locked” by a board moderator or the original author. Locking a topic prevents it from being replied to by anyone. Moderators and topic authors can also “unlock” a topic if they so choose. Topic authors also have the option of starting a topic locked.
