I was looking for “Best answer” capabilities to highlight best answer. There is a great plugin - “discourse-solved”, would it be hard to adopt this plugin to “best answer” plugin? It seems that replacing “Solved by” and “Solved” by custom string would do the trick..

I did and tried and it won’t work for us. My small community would love to give ability to topic authors to flag one answer in a topic as “best answer”. No need even to pin it to the top, just either highlight entire answer or flag it somehow..
