why can't I mark questions as answered?

There used to be a way to find answers in a question forum thread and pick the best answer, and mark it as answered.

I can't find that now for the life of me? Is it gone? or am I just a dullard? help

If enabled, the person who asked can set a best answer by clicking on the checkmark left to the answer post.

I would suggest that mods and admins should be able to mark answers as best answers also.

You need to set the forum to “Questions” (not “Discussions”) first.

That is the case. There was just a bug in the recent versions that made it so that admins didn’t see the button to mark the best answer.

Oh I see: on v 4.1.7 it is available for admins again. Thank you.

Check the admin permissions for that function and try to apply/save it again. Did the trick for me.
