We have recently active, most replies, and most views… but as a solid knowledge base of answered questions build, it’d be great to filter by “Most Helpful.”

Use cases: Q&A forums, building FAQ lists, another way to feature/highlight top content without using widgets, etc

How:

  • Use the Content Helpfulness score that’s available in control. The data is there.
  • No need to expose the score or the data itself in the UI, but just use it to order posts in the category by those with the highest helpfulness score. 
  • Build it as a filter option like the others in the forum (listed above)

Forgot to add: A benefit of this is that it motivates and incentivizes end users to use the content helpfulness voting.

Hi @DannyPancratz, thanks for submitting your idea. We did not think to use content helpfulness to guide end-users on destination but sounds like an interesting idea!
 

I’ll put this idea to 'open' to collect more votes and feedback.

As with my reply on the other idea, by Filter I mean sort option on category/group forums.
