Forum Helper
Off by defaultHelp forums get a solved workflow. Kovu adds a Mark as answered button to every new post; the person who asked or your staff press it, and Kovu adds your Solved tag, takes off your Open tag and archives the post later. It reminds people who go quiet after a reply, archives posts nobody writes in, and gives the member who answered credit.

- Open the dashboard and pick your server. Sign in with Discord if you haven’t.

- Go through the settings below. Simple mode shows the essentials; switch to Advanced for the rest.
- Changes apply in your server within a few seconds of saving.
Tips
- Create the Solved and Open tags in the forum’s settings in Discord first, then pick them on the dashboard. Turn on “Only allow moderators to apply this tag” for Solved so members can’t add it themselves.
- Turn on Rep and Achievements: the member the asker picks gets 1 rep, and a Forum answers badge counts their answers.
- Staff can mark any post answered, without giving credit. Adding or removing the Solved tag by hand in Discord works too.
- Kovu starts with posts made after you add a forum; older posts aren’t tracked.
