A new update is available for [XTR] Temporary Sticky Threads by Offical.

[XTR] Temporary Sticky Threads 1.0.1​

Update highlights​

This version fixes a notable logic bug. In previous versions, when a temporary sticky thread expired, the action of un-sticking it was always attributed to the first registered user of the forum (user ID 1). This could lead to confusing notifications and incorrect moderation log entries, especially if this user is no longer an administrator.

With this update, the scheduled task (cron job) now correctly uses an active administrator to perform this action. As a result, the un-sticking action and its related notifications will be properly and consistently attributed to an authorized administrator.

Complete Change Log​

• Fix: Fixed an issue where the cron job for removing expired temporary sticky threads would always attribute the action to the user with ID 1. The action is now performed on behalf of an active administrator.
