Features

Question marks

Questions have a special mark before the title which signalize that it is a question and shows its state (solved/unsolved). There will be a best answer mark near question mark if question has best answer:

Question marks are fully customizable starting from three different types and ending with an ability to apply custom css. Take a look at some examples:

Question mark is showing everywhere before question title: threads list, thread view, search results and so on:

Forum types

Likely you will need to prohibit creating questions in some forums. Forum types were created exactly for that purpose.

There are three different types of forum:
  • Threads only
  • Threads and questions
  • Questions only
Questions only forums have custom node icon both in public and in ACP:

Moreover in questions only forums some phrases and icons are changed to give users an understanding of current forum type:

Best answers

Some questions are getting solved through a big disscussion of many users.

But sometimes a user can give one, straight and very helpful correct answer. In such cases question author can mark such answer as "best answer":

Of course you can customize the look of best answer:


Options and Customization
