solved Marking questions as solved

[GameMonetize]

Hey all,

it is not ideal but I would like that answered topics would be flagged as solved using tags (like this topic).

To add a tag, you have to edit the first post you made to start a topic. 

Thanks a lot

[Dad72]

It is true that it would help has know what is solved and not solved.

[jerome]

or edit the first post and ... change the title to [SOLVED] + title

[GameMonetize]

Works as well!

[Fedor]

Would be nice to have a function to select the specific comment that holds the solution - like on the Stackoverflow fora. 

 

[GameMonetize]

yes  But it seems not possible with this forum

[Fedor]

here we are, all inventive programmers ... let's hack this thing! ;-)

[GameMonetize]

I would love to!! If someone is ok to help I will thank him/her forever

Shouldn't we be designing our own forum software... where the forum is used... from WITHIN a BJS scene?  (ahem)

This ADT thing... this... advancedDynamicTexture... can we make a text editor/reader from that thing?

Is there ANY CHANCE... for iFrame on a plane?    (unlikely)  But we ALL know that people will continue to ask-for webpage-on-a-plane. It's just a matter of time.

So then... hmm... the forum-message solution... can be "bound/binded" to a PG series... and in SOME cases... the message(s) plane(s)... AND the playgrounds involved in the discussion, are all there... in our new 3D forum.  They are "represented" by tokens... and lines/wires.  Drillable/clickable things... playgrounds bound-to discussions bound-to docs bound-to source code bound-to playgrounds.    Bi-directional links!  Ted Nelson would be SO proud of us!

Right now, most of our "stuff" is in 2D, and we occasionally visit 3D to show an issue.

In the new system, most of our "stuff" would be in 3D, and we occasionally visit 2D to read or post a message.  But logging into the forum... would be putting you into a BJS scene.  Some Windows users can hold Windows key, and tap TAB... to see how 2d-in-3d "feels".    MS has the right idea, and is starting to prepare us. 

I guess @NasimiAsl already thought about this... and built blog500 for something similar.  I don't know IF/HOW he planned to do a text reader/editor on a BJS plane/box, though.

But it seems to me... a text reader/editor on an ADT (advancedDynaTexture)... CAN be done.  Thoughts?  Wrong place/thread?  Use Wingnut Chronicles as-wanted.  Are we "ready" for a 3D forum?  hmm.    Perhaps too soon, yet.

 i think about this forums  a lot   so this is result ( don't be make it fun   please )

in Step One we need make Question And Answer  Part (Not in  Member Area  ) in BabylonJs.Com

anyone ( without any login  ) can ask question in there and Administrator answer that if that have exact answer in BJS.com/faq or reference that ( for solve it in this forum this happen if we don't planed this in babylon js and need a new solution ) in external link

so basically we show the people correct answers in BJS Domain ( seo benefits ) and still have this community in here for any new stuff 

* i like to help make FAQ in BJS

Fun picture that I (and OzRocker) made.

[GameMonetize]

Love it! But don't know how to enforce it

[javalang]

sorry I'm confused, how can I put this nice "solved" icon into the title bar?

Just edit the title of your first open post and write [SOLVED]

or

Add a tag and choose to add it as a prefix

[Wingnut]

Wouldn't it be cooool... if ANYONE could "place" a happy "Is this solved?" sticker on any thread post, and that would send a notification to thread starter.

Then... the thread author could answer it... with a yes, or no.

If "yes", it automatically adds the "solved" (prefix) tag, and removes the "Is this solved?" sticker/image.  (might remove 'ongoing' tag, too. see below)

If "no", it ONLY removes the "Is this solved?" sticker (and perhaps offers to add a blue 'ongoing' prefix tag.) 

Nice.  Then the forum police can run around issuing "is this solved?" citations, and pressuring people into rushed "solved" closures. 

Maybe this idea is a poor idea.  heh

Had we had this feature from the start, I calculate that The Wingnut Chronicles would have received about 861 "Is this solved?" stickers, by now. 

[GameMonetize]

I try to do it as much as I can

[Pryme8]

Lets just purge the forum and start back over from post number 1 ^_^... just kidding please don't do that...

Ahh Wingy, but looking at my local test server, which has problems and fixes  by poster, there are names I have never see since there first couple of posts. Students maybe?

cheers, gryff

Found it after some poking deeper.  Nifty.

I wonder if a "solved" bookmarklet would work.

BabylonJS Solved Bookmarklet

Edit:  The editor messed up the JS code (good).

Here is the code:

<a href="javascript: (function () { 
    $("#elInput_topic_tags_dummyInput").focus();  
    $("#elInput_topic_tags_dummyInput").val("solved");
    $("#elInput_topic_tags_dummyInput").blur();
}());">SOLVED!</a>

 

[Pryme8]

What about adding a confirm() prompt to that process as well?

[adam]

This is probably too clunky, but since you have to edit the post I added a line of code to make sure you are on the right edit page:

<a href="javascript: (function () { 
	var url = window.location.href;
	if(url.indexOf("?do=edit") == -1){ 
		location = window.location.href + "?do=edit";
	}else{
		document.getElementById("elInput_topic_tags_dummyInput").focus();  
		document.getElementById("elInput_topic_tags_dummyInput").value = "solved"; 
		document.getElementById("elInput_topic_tags_dummyInput").blur(); 
	}
 }());">SOLVED!</a>

If you are not on the edit page, it takes you there and then you have to click again to add the "solved" tag.

@Pryme8 it currently isn't set up to submit the page.  Feel free to make any improvements.

[Pryme8]

Ah if it does not submit, then there is really no point I guess!
Only thing I might do is convert it to vanilla, but that's not really necessary. Cool idea! Thumbs up from me.

Here is the bookmarklet in the PlayGround:

Drag the "Solved! BabylonJS Forum Rocks" link to your browser's bookmarks toolbar so that you can use it in the forum.
