Hello,
I don’t know if that’s been asked before, but I’ll give it a shot. Can we add an option here on the forum so when a problem is resolved, to let the OP “mark as solved”?
It is a pain in the … to know if threads have been resolved or not by their title.
Thanks
Hey there,
It’s something we’ve talked about a bit in the past, but the goals of freely living discussion of game development on the forums doesn’t often align with the function that a mark would provide. Since forum posts live quite long (years!) and Unreal Engine evolves, we fear there’d be a large number of incorrectly marked posts, providing bad info to readers.
AnswerHub, however, allows for the binary status, as posts there are typically from a developer trying to solve a specific single problem. The forums tend to contain more analog discussion.
Well I suggested as such because there is a chaos on “Blueprints” where you don’t know if either a problem is solved or not from the title and you think “Shall I enter or shall I still keep looking?”. It’s tiresome to keep looking and looking to threads which are not solved when you try to find an answer to your question. And to speak truthfully, most problems are expressed here in the forums than the answerhub because answers come faster.
But hey, it was just an idea.
Most forum use this system and this add a good % to forum readibility. So i can +1
