Forum Answers
Purpose
Some forums are in a question and answer format, a helpdesk to example.
In this case, it is nice to select a forum reply as the “answer” to the original post question.
The following extra features extend [wps-forum], see below for the extra options available.
An answer can be selected (and unselected) by either the original forum post author, or site administrators, but you can’t select your own answer!
Rewards
If you are using the rewards extension, you will also now get additional rewards that you can use, for users setting a forum post as an answer.
If an answer is unset, the reward is removed
Availability
Provided in the Extensions Plugin.
Customising
Not applicable.
Example
To enable forum answers on a specific forum, you can use:
