Solution to Question: Green Tick on PF Topics

  • Suggestion
  • Thread starter cupid.callin
  • Start date
In summary, there have been suggestions for a feature on the PF forum where users can mark their topics as solved, possibly with a green tick icon. However, it seems that this feature is not currently available and it is up to the member to manually indicate if their topic is solved. There used to be a feature for marking threads as solved, but it is no longer functional with the current version of vBulletin.

Hi all,

I just thought that the PF should have some way through which other people can know that the topic is solved ... i don't know maybe something like a green tick instead of that that message icon

Of course one cannot lock his topic (extra answers are always good!) but that would enable others to know if there is further help needed or not!

even if there is some new reply to a solved topic then you can add a small message icon along with the tick!

Please don't mind if there is always something like this of which i don't know ... do tell me if there is this feature and how to use it ...

Are you referring to homework? If so, the answer is no. Yes, it's been discussed before, but for now, it's up to the member to post if he considers it solved.

We had a solved marker we could apply to threads a while back, but iirc the newer version of vBulletin rendered it useless.
