Add ability to mark thread "Solved" and a link to "Jump to solution"
Feb 6th 2013, 01:08

This forum would become VERY useful if two features were added:

1. Ability to mark a thread as solved

This would not only put a "SOLVED" at the beginning of the title, but also be a feature in the search form where you could choose to view only "solved" threads.

2. Ability to mark a specific post in the thread as your solution (only OP can mark it this way)

This would result in a big link at the top of the thread (and also an icon in the forum board next to the thread title) that would "Jump to solution". If you click that, it would take you directly to the post that was marked as the solution.

This is not as critical, but I'd also add:

When marking a post as the "solution" it would also require you to enter:

1. version of opensuse (or other OS)
2. model/make of the computer
3. 32-64 bit
4. graphics cards
5. ram
6. storage
7. optional extra data

Then others could come in and mark it as also a solution for them with their setup or "not a solution" and their setup. This way, people could see quickly if it will help solve their problem given their setup and if not, perhaps offer a different solution for their setup. (And this could then be used in searching)
