Select Post Best Answer

iCosmo It's not deleted here. Not sure why you're seeing that...

jordanjay29 Maybe this is a flarum bug, sorry, misunderstanding.

Great extension!
However would you consider this as bug? wiwatsrt/flarum-ext-best-answer10
I also do not see why the author shall be able to choose his first post which is mostly a question as best answer.

@WiwatSrt what happened to the 0.2.0 versions? Tags exist in GitHub but they don't appear on Packagist. Is your sync for packagist set up properly? The hooks/services implementation has been deprecated.

Chris89 100% a bug - I can reproduce this behaviour also
@WiwatSrt is this extension still under active development ?

[deleted] please be aware that some commissioned work is taking place by @datitisev ; so if this extension isn't seeing active development it will be forked to the Friends of Flarum team.

luceos That's great news. Thanks @luceos

@datitisev can you advise if this is going to be forked at all ? @JasperVriends has mentioned this extension in the newly released SEO, so I think it would make sense to do this.

[deleted] I made a PR (see wiwatsrt/flarum-ext-best-answer20). If @WiwatSrt doesn't reply, then we'll fork the extension into FriendsOfFlarum.

datitisev Awesome. Thanks.

@datitisev, can we also have the option to select which posts should have the possibility to have an answer or not? Because right now, if you create let's say some pinned messages that wouldn't have an answer, you'll get an error from Google saying that the rick snippets tags (which the plugin adds for SEO purposes) that the page is in a "QA question/answer type" but without any answer?

Thank you.

bogdanteodoru that sounds like a bug with the SEO extension, adding additional SEO tags where this is not possible due to not having an answer.

/ping @JasperVriends

bogdanteodoru luceos That behaviour is correct of the SEO plugin, when discussions are not set as 'solved', the discussion will be marked as 'not answered' for search engines. Google does not strike you for that, it is just to let Google know that the specific discussion is not solved (yet). Discussions that are solved will get higher on specific search terms.

It would be better to have specific tags where the 'Best answer' plugin can be used in, as it is not needed everywhere. Until then, I'll have to set all discussions as 'QA' because it's not specified where QA can be used on the forums.

JasperVriends It would be better to have specific tags where the 'Best answer' plugin can be used in, as it is not needed everywhere.

I agree, it's something I've been considering as well. I wouldn't be surprised to have this feature added somewhere in the future.

JasperVriends OK, makes sense. Thank you.

WiwatSrt should we update from GIT or will you update the composer package ?
