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

:up: Tips & Suggestions :up:
I've found that using Thread Prefixes and tweaking things up a bit is a great way to get things categories, unless you want to make forums for each or use Extra Threadfields Had been asked this a few times.

Are you talking about this developer's premium mods? Or premium mods in general?

I haven't had time to support the free version much as I've been busy with paid clients for both contracted work and premium product purchases. However, i've subscribed myself to this thread again in case anyone is having any issues.

!($permissions['answers_forum_perms'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp['answers_forum_perms']['canselect_others_answers'])

I get the "you do not have permission to access this page" message as well, and it's because of the check above in the 'Answer Light Forums - Update Thread Answer Light' plugin. Is there anything missing from the light version installation files?

Are you trying to choose the answer for your own question or someone else's question?

Keep in mind that the light version only allows you to select answers for your own question.

Thanks, Gio~Logist. I wasn't aware of the light version limitation. I verified that I could answer my own question with the light version, but wanted the full capabilities, and so purchased the pro version. It does what we need. Thanks!

The Lite Version doesn't work on vb 4.2.3

edit: it works, forget to enable the function on the single forums

[dariyos]

is it possible that someone else, who didn't wrote the thread, mark the answer as the best and can reset it?

maybe in the fullversion?

is it possible to enable the mod only for NEW threads/posts?
