Enable the Q&A plugin in all categories

Examples

  1. I want to mark /t/135873/5 as the answer to /t/135873/1, without moving it out of Project Discussion - Fedora Discussion, where it should be (as @augenauf helpfully demonstrated for me).

  2. Enable the solution plugin for DMs - Brainstorm - KDE Discuss

Suggestion

Consequently, please enable the Q&A plugin in at least that category (KDE has done so for #Development at their Discourse instance) but ideally, all categories.

I have mixed feelings about this. For Q&A, it’s reasonable to give the person who asked the question the power to decide on The Answer. It’s also sensible for some Project Discussion topics. But for others, where it’s really a discussion, having someone declare something The Answer could be a problem.

The plugin can also be enabled per tag, which is how it’s set up in Site Help & Feedback. We could add the question tag as a possible selection in Project Discussion, but I’m a little concerned that this could lead to more people asking things that should be in Ask Fedora.
