Been a bit quiet lately, so thought Iād share some new things Iām going to be adding into Sudonix for the v3 release (based on Harmony). As you probably know by now, Sudonix allows you to set the best answer for any questions you ask. I wanted to extend this capability graphically, and came up with these ideas.
First and foremost - say youāre reading a post where someone was able to get the response they needed, and it solved their issue. The next person comes along, and gets the same experience. Wouldnāt it be nice to show your appreciation? Now you can !
Just below the āAccepted Answerā is a newly inserted div which in fact is just a widget, but leverages the power of the NodeBB API to make decisions around which div should be presented.
https://docs.nodebb.org/api/read/#section/Overview
For example
And then, if you are the original poster, have received responses, but are yet to choose the best answer
And, what if you were the original poster, but had no responses? Weāve got that covered too 
The code for all of this is relatively simple - an example is shown below
First things first: This additional code will not work properly if you do not have nodebb-plugin-question-and-answer installed. It relies on various values being exposed which are not there if the plugin is not installed.
The first element of code to be added needs to be in ACP->Custom Content (HTML/JS/CSS)->Custom Javascript
$(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function (data) {
function updateUsername() {
$('.getUsername .username').text(app.user.username);
$('.topicUsername').text(app.user.username);
}
if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', updateUsername);
} else {
updateUsername();
}
});
Save.
Then, add the below to ACP->Extend-Widgets->Topic.tpl, and use the HTML Widget (which youāll need to drag into the place where you want it to appear - the optimum is the Topic Footer.
<head>
<style>
span.topicUsername {
text-transform: capitalize;
}
</style>
</head>

Youāll notice some interesting features here courtesy of jQuery (and vanilla js where if the page is loaded externally, and jQuery is not loaded, it will fallback to plain, which is this part if (!window.jQuery) )
Thereās also a function that will position the newly inserted div into the right place - essentially, this command .insertBefore('[component="topic/quickreply/container"]'); . The purpose of this is to place the div message in where youād expect to see it - for example, if the post is solved, then it should appear directly underneath the resolution, but if no replies, or if youāre the original poster and youāve yet to choose an accepted answer, itāll be at the bottom.
Essentially, we are not only defining a div structure, but using logic to determine placement to ensure it gets the most attention.
And finally, the CSS used below
div#resolved {
border-radius: 0.375rem;
border: 2px solid var(--bs-resolved-bg) !important;
margin-left: 24px;
}
h5.resolved-header {
color: var(--bs-body-color);
background: var(--bs-resolved-bg);
padding: 6px 8px;
padding-left: 50px;
font-weight: 600;
height: 40px;
line-height: 1.8;
z-index: 1;
position: relative;
}
h5.resolved-header:before {
content: "\f648";
font-family: "Font Awesome 6 Pro";
font-size: 1.5rem;
font-weight: 300;
line-height: 1.2;
vertical-align: bottom;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-left: -35px;
}
.resolved-body {
padding: 20px;
background: var(--bs-resolved-bg-rgba);
margin-top: -10px;
}
div#unresolved {
border-radius: 0.375rem;
border: 2px solid var(--bs-unresolved-bg) !important;
margin-left: 24px;
margin-top: 20px;
}
h5.unresolved-header {
color: var(--bs-body-color);
background: var(--bs-unresolved-bg);
padding: 6px 8px;
padding-left: 50px;
font-weight: 600;
height: 40px;
line-height: 1.8;
z-index: 1;
position: relative;
}
h5.unresolved-header:before {

font-family: "Font Awesome 6 Pro";
font-size: 1.5rem;
font-weight: 300;
line-height: 1.2;
vertical-align: bottom;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-left: -35px;
}
.unresolved-body {
padding: 20px;
background: var(--bs-unresolved-bg-rgba);
margin-top: -10px;
}
div#unreplied {
border-radius: 0.375rem;
border: 2px solid var(--bs-unreplied-bg) !important;
margin-left: 24px;
margin-top: 20px;
}
h5.unreplied-header {
color: var(--bs-body-color);
background: var(--bs-unreplied-bg);
padding: 6px 8px;
padding-left: 50px;
font-weight: 600;

line-height: 1.8;
z-index: 1;
position: relative;
}
h5.unreplied-header:before {
content: "\e36d";
font-family: "Font Awesome 6 Pro";
font-size: 1.5rem;
font-weight: 300;
line-height: 1.2;
vertical-align: bottom;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-left: -35px;
}
.unreplied-body {
padding: 20px;
background: var(--bs-unreplied-bg-rgba);
margin-top: -10px;
}
Save.
Note that Iām using LESS variables here, so youāll need to define your own colours if you do not use this standard. I also have a Font Awesome 6 Pro license, so youāll need to replace that as necessary.
