Hello everyone, :hihi:

is there a way (or some kind of convention) to mark threads a positively solved in the identification and request sub-forums?
Something like editing the thread title and add an [RESOLVED] before it?
It would be much more convenient for people who try to help other people as you won't pay attention to already solved cases.
And if you search for something you'll see it already in the search result.

Even better would be - of course - a software-sided solution (means some kind of button which sets some kind of status or flag which can be also added as a criteria in the advanced search). But time is precious - especially the time of the admin(s) here.

ideally it would be nice if the member flag it as resolved, not sure of the software bit though, I suppose it can be looked at if there is any

Okay, my solution doesn't work. If you edit your first post you can change the title, but that doesn't change the title of the thread - only of your post.
Means at the moment changing the title afterwards is - at least for normal users - not possible. :cry5:
