Was wondering if there was a way to make Solved a more prominent option, possibly getting it to show when the options are collapsed. I think because it is a plugin it is not a choice in the post menu setting so it is hidden.
AI-generated summary
A discussion about making the “Solved” option more prominent started by emilio, suggesting it should be visible even when the options are collapsed. michaeld explained that the button’s position depends on the situation, being visible by default for topic starters when the topic is unsolved. However, emilio and joellabes felt it should be more accessible for mods. AquaL1te opposed the change, citing concerns about accidental clicks on touch devices. Contrary to the opposition, JammyDodger revealed that the feature has been implemented, making the “Solved” checkbox visible outside the menu for those who can mark a topic as solved, as seen in this GitHub pull request.

The position of the button depends on the situation. It is already prominent when it needs to be.
If you started the topic and the topic is unsolved then the button is visible by default, otherwise it is in the dots menu.

Oh ok. I don’t understand why it is hidden for mods then. but that is less of an issue.

As a mod/staff I would also like to have the ability to put the Solved button outside of the dots.
I’m fine with how it is now. I don’t want people to accidentally click on the solved button. On a touch controlled device it may happen while scrolling. So if this is changed, please allow a way to revert to the original setup

I believe this has now been implemented, and the solved checkbox appears outside of the … menu for everyone who can mark a topic as solved.
