Show answer label only for accepted answers

OrganicBytes

This discussion is related to the Q&A addon.

Is there a way to only show the "answered label" for posts with accepted answers? Also, how to you get a checkmark next to the accepted post? The board here has that feature.

this can be done quite easily.

The class vanilla use for Accepted is: class="Tag QnA-Tag-Accepted"

The class for answered is: class="Tag QnA-Tag-Answered"

So with some css jiggery pokery it could be solved quite easily. As for the tick, that is controlled by the plugin. I dont think the devs have actually released that. But uses a unicode tick next to answer, so pretty easy to hack

The latest version of Q&A has the following translation:

$Definition['Q&A Accepted'] = 'Answered ✓';

I'm still not sure how I would make it blank unless an answer was accepted. I tried this but it still leaves a little black square.

$Definition['Q&A Answered'] = '';

You need to look in the sourcecode where $Definition['Q&A Answered'] is used. Then you need to do an if-then-else function in the view to hide the $Definition['Q&A Answered'] when the question is not answered. Everything will be much clearer once you've found the piece of code where $Definition['Q&A Answered'] is used.

Sometimes you've got to look for the easy solution:

.QnA-Tag-Answered { display: none; }
