Re: Ranking by accept Answer

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Do you mean that you as an administrator or moderator want to be able to "accept" all posts before they are displayed? In that case, such a feature has been suggested before and will most likely make it into PunBB 1.2.

Re: Ranking by accept Answer

I think he is saying people spam up the boards, so he wants ranking based on number of replies, not number of posts. I think thats it.

Do, or do not.

As of what I can understand I think he want's to have a button under each post, and when you click on this, the users post count will increase.

Re: Ranking by accept Answer

Oh, he's got something like experts exchange... I'd say that this is another counter, I'd set it sepparated, then you can compare the ratio of correct/bad answers wink

Well, anyway, the easy part is stopping the counter, and increasing the counter doesn't mean that much work, you should place a form that appears on each message, with the poster id and a submit button, only available to moderators.

However, to be coherent, that same button should have to add a message to the thread and close it. And count the people who ASK a question,if you want to give credits for that (+for answers, -for questions). That's the part I would be lazy about coding sad
