In some threads that get long, the original poster of the thread can select which post they found best answered their initial enquiry. That then gets linked to from above the first post. Should those who wish to quickly get to it, which to use it and skips some responses. :)
 
I have just been into this thread and selected the Best Answered on @Strima post.
Is this function purely for the original poster to choose as it looks like anyone can pick?
Just thought I'd test this out....

I think it's for the OP to select as the best answer to their question.

I do see the option on all the posts, including my own, to choose the best answer whether this is deliberate or not is beyond me.

I’ve just gone into that thread and de selected strima and it did it. This cannot be right.

Sorry strima just wanted to see if it worked.

I’ve just selected leesparky Kent as best answered now.

May need some work.!


I’ve now just selected myself as best answered on e7 question.
It was a pretty good answer to be fair.

Meant to be for the OP yeah. I'll go fix that in a second. I'm just being pulled off real work by @Lister1987 who thinks he's found a new rule we are breaking. pmsl (I think he's jealous or something)

Boooooo that didn't work. It's setup for admins to do it I think really but we don't want that. We want the OP to have the option to do it. So I'll look into that again.
