A Resolve button available as a plugin.
I thought you said you *already* had one. yes or no?

@Jon,
If you are looking at the guy that I mentioned to you, I am sure he could adapt it to show whatever one wanted.?
Would help him sell it even more?

it seems that you are "plugin-averse". is that true, sir? Personally, I hate plugins of any kind. I currently have 5 different subdomains using wordpress, and I'm considering just changing the PHP and CSS myself when I want something done rather than downloading from Wordpress.org, because I know da*n good and well those people don't know what they're doing in terms of paying attention to detail. :rolleyes: every question I've asked on that forum was over their head.

What I am adverse to is a plugin that, if removed, causes problems. The Resolved button embeds itself in all sorts of areas. Not sure of the implications of it all.

well personally Jon, I wouldn't trust any 3rd party software, unless it comes from language creators like the Python creator. those guys are very good when it comes to paying attention, but 3rd parties that just sell *packages* that are written in languages created by others never do pay attention. so that's the risk. if I were you, before using a plugin, back up your stuff or maybe shut the site down for a few hours. that way a reversion is very easy. but i'm sure you already know that....

Plugins can add a hacking risk to sites. That was a real problem with many of the plugins for vBulletin.
