You can install this extension in phpBB by following the steps below:
- Download the latest release.
- Unzip the file to your phpBB/ext directory.
- Navigate in the ACP to Customise -> Manage extensions.
- Look for Topic Solved under the Disabled Extensions list, and click its Enable link.
After enabling the extension, you must configure each individual forum you would like solved topic functionality to be enabled for. Under the "Forums" section in the Administration Control Panel, find each forum you would like to enable solved topics for, and click "Edit forum".
Topic Solved will not work for "Category" or "Link" type forums, it will only work with "Forum" forum types. Once you have ensured your forum is set for the "Forum" type, the topic solved settings will show up in it's own section near the bottom of the settings form.
At the minimum, you must select either "Yes" or "Moderator" for the "Allow topics to be marked as solved" setting in order to enable solved topics for the forum you wish to use this extension with.
The remaining settings alter the behavior and permissions required to mark topics as solved or unsolved, as well as the appearance of the indicator.
