Do you check the Hide on Show thread setting for the ctr field?

Do you mean New thread?

Ah, yes. That is what I meant.
I'm really sorry for my mistake.

That's ok RateU.

Well either way whether it should be checked off or not, I tried it both ways and it still doesnt show up anywhere. I am able to close the thread and have the default reason show up in the thread list but when I go to edit the closed thread from the post in full mode....I see no input field that I can put in a reason.
Are the setup instructions in the first post exact?? Or is there something else I should be looking to configure or set like checking the  hide Hide Thread Field...Hide input field on New/edit Thread ?

I really like this feature to have for my moderators. I'm bummed I cant get this to work.

Check whether {$extra_threadfields} variable exists in your editpost template.

Wow!! I love it, that was the problem...it was missing that variable.
Thank you so much for not losing patience with me.
