Why a question is not closed automatically when an answer is accepted? Actually you have to manually close the question and give the reason that the question was answered and accepted.

I'm not sure I see the point of closing the questions at all. If someone has a meaningful contribution to add to the topic, why shouldn't (s)he have the option to do so? It is true that the original poster already got the answer, but someone else's alternative approach (perhaps made relevant by a new version, module or a bug fix) later on could be useful to someone else. It would be different if the forum had a problem with pointless replies and spam, but since we don't I think the questions could stay open even after they have been answered. Just my 2 cents.

When à question is closes you CAN reopen it.. So i think it could be cool to have auto closes question when thé réponse is accepted
