Like it is possible for articles, is it possible to add a label next to a question?

We would like to add some status on certain questions, and apart from writing down a comment or adding a tag, which aren't as visible, I am not sure there is any other solution?

@jvdc I’m guessing this is not in scope with what you would want, but do you have few enough labels (and high enough volume) that you could consider a dedicated forum for each question type?

 

@DannyPancratz Is this it? Looks like I voted on it a year ago! 😄

I don’t think it’s possible. I thought I had submitted it as an idea on here previously, but I couldn’t find anything in searching.

Hey ​@atwhite hehe thanks for chipping in. Those labels that we have in mind aren't topics that can be segmented into their own communities. Thanks for finding ​@DannyPancratz 's idea, I've voted!

So … in the end… and for the meantime…. I managed to do some custom work.

  • Using the new question webhook to update the tag list with some specific tag based on some criteria
  • Using a script that will check if specific tags are on the question and will add a label next to the question label

@jvdc That sounds very cool! So am I picturing it correctly that it adds a second label?

Yeah so basically,

  • I have an automated flow that gets triggered by the new question webhook. Using a user profile criteria it will add a tag to the existing tag list using the API
  • Then I added a script in the header that will check if specific tags are present in the tag list and if one of these tags is there, it inserts a label/pill next to the question one.

 

With this method I would have preferred to be adding a moderator tag instead, so that it is invisible and cannot be removed by end-users, but moderator tags aren't accessible on the front-end via the InsidedData object….

@jvdc Impressive indeed! We might consider doing something similar. We have an entire forum dedicated to Q&A; providing more visibility into the question type might help increase answer submissions.
