Answers Forum
Ever wanted to enable the ability to specify a certain forum as an "answer" forum, where members can post questions and select the best answer given by the community? This is similar to yahoo answers, a very effective website where users can post questions and seek answers from registered users. Answering questions can get to be a mess, keep it organized and save yourself a bit of hassle when dealing with Q&A's. As a webmaster, you already have enough on your hands to have to worry about answering questions sometimes, and need an effective way to do this! Or maybe, you just want to let your community do it for you

thx

And last, the "Answered / Unanswered" prefixes are only being displayed when viewing the forumdisplay of the selected forum. How do you change it so that these prefixes show up when people search, specifically when using the "Todays New Posts" search.

What about this?

[basketmen]

i request one feature, i hope it can be realized in future paid release, like in the pm :

Top Helpers on forumdisplay will showing Top helpers in each forum, not Top helpers in all forum, thats why i purchase premium version

please can you make little edit just for that, i really need it to make Professional people in this category , thats how looks like yahoo answer

[siriuxs]

It is possible integrate it with vbcredits? It is possible to donate for example 10credits to best answer? and what is the different beetwen this version and premium version?

I think this covers it correctly. I have purchased the mod, and you can see it in action here http://www.4x4mecca.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=405 post up any more questions.

This should really be posted in the Mod description, or at least on the premium product link.

I have installed this plug-in but is only supported vbplaza and not vbcredits :S

At the moment, only the premium version supports both.

If you can find me the link for this, I'll definitely consider creating a readme for you all or offering an alternate method perhaps

[siriuxs]

but fon only vbcredit integration 25$ is too much... There is a discount for vbulletin.org member?

[AzzidReign]

I'm highly considering buying the premium version for this...but I would like the option to allow certain usergroups the ability to choose "best answer", sort of like at yahoo. Once you reach Level 2 you are allowed to choose best answers. I see you have "Allow users to choose best answer" but I see nothing in the usergroup, user options, or vb options and I have only seen it working for admins... Maybe I'm looking in the wrong spot...?

And I would like to see integration with vBexperience as I'm using that on my largest forum (since vBCredits is taking way to long to develop their addons)...

I've installed the lite version on my board but lacks all the features I would really like to have so if my suggestions are added, I'll be sure to purchase the premium version.

Both are great suggestions. Currently, only the admin and thread starter can choose the answer. However, i can see the need to allow others to do so as well (based on usergroups). This feature will be added As for integration with vbexperience, i will look into that as well :up:

Thanks Gio! I'll be waiting to hear back on the progress
