Board Optimization - [Ajax] Best Answer

This is a quite simple and effective mod to select a post as Best Answer .

see readme file before installing .

Donations are always welcome

------------------------------------------------
## Features ##

• Allow to select/unselect post as 'best answer'
• Best answer is bumped ( duplicated ) to the top
• Best answer post has an indication 'best answer' on top of the post
• [SOLVED] prefix is added to threads with best answer, this will not replace any exiting prefix.
• Can be configured to apply for specific forums only
• By default, only the one who opened the thread can select/unselect a post as best answer
• Pemissions allowing select as 'best answer' can be add for specific user groups
• on/off configuration

## HOW TO INSTALL ##

1. upload the content of the upload folder into your forum root directory
2. import the XML file as new product
3. go to settings -> options -> best answer and configure the product as u wish

## Style - css ##

The mod doesn't come with any particular css with it, as each forum has its own style.
With that said, all of the mod related html elements were attached to class so adding css is easy .

In addition, there is example.css file which can be used for those who want the css i wrote .
just add it to additional.css or wherever u like this css to be .

## Compatability ##

was tested over vB4.2.2 nad vB4.2.3 but should work with any vB4.x .

use this at your own risk, always backup your database before installing any new mod !

It does not create any new table, only adds a column 'is_best_answer' for the posts table.

Yeah, this comes by default, this is how it works.
