Viewing the user who marks the solution

Hi everyone

I’m recently facing an issue where I want to know if the author of the post marked a reply as a solution or if it was an admin/mod.

I currently have no idea how to figure that out or if Discourse even shows that.

IIRC, Discourse only sends a notification to the author of the reply and the author of the topic if someone else marks the solution.

This will also help to keep in check if someone is just marking their own replies as solutions to boost stats.

Who has marked a particular topic as Solved

To look up who has marked a particular topic as Solved: -- [params] -- topic_id :topic_id SELECT target_topic_id, acting_user_id, created_at::date FROM user_actions WHERE target_topic_id = :topic_id AND action_type = 15 ORDER BY created_at DESC

How do I see who is marking solved and on what?

I was interested to see these stats for my instance as well, so had a go at making some queries for data explorer: To list each individual “solved” event: SELECT acting_user_id, target_topic_id, target_post_id, created_at FROM user_actions WHERE action_type=15 ORDER BY created_at DESC To produce a list with stats per-user: (with variable for time interval, defaults to 1 year): -- [params] -- string :interval = 1 year SELECT ua.acting_user_id, count(case t.user_id when ua.acting_use…

There’s also this open feature request you may find interesting and want to add your voice to:

Display the user who marked the answer as correct

Over and over again I have wished I could tell who marked a post the solution: whether it was the OP or someone who (for whatever reason) wanted to close the topic

Thank you @Moin

I mean the ability to view who marked solutions for non-admin roles like category mods and even regular users as well.

Thanks @JammyDodger

I have added to the open feature request you shared.

I’d really appreciate it if everyone could view who marked the solution.
