Recently we have a Solved button in each thread and the OP is supposed to close the thread and mark it as solved when his question is answered. I've done it here and in previous software too. But marking a thread as solved may help other experts not to spend their time to reply to an already solved question, but doesn't help the others who have the same question in future.
Imagine I have a problem that it's been asked before. I search for it, find it, but I can't understand which solution has solved the problem. I have to go test every and each given solution to find out it doesn't help. But if the OP could mark a specific answer as the one who solved the problem, I could jump to it and voala.... I have my answer too.
The harder the question is, the more the count of replies. which sometimes goes over to several pages and makes it harder to find which one exactly solved the case.
So if possible, I appreciate if the Admins can do something about it.
Edit: At the very first days of this new software, I read somewhere in a thread that several experts here were against this idea. Because marking a specific post as the answer, may cause and seem other experts have not contribute to the question or their solution has been wrong.
But don't forget please, for us who have questions, it's more important what solved the problem than who solved it.
For sure we appreciate all who had put their time to help, but finding the best solution doesn't mean other's posts has been worthless.
