[New Feature] Related Topics was created by ssh

As an SEO strategy, SEO specialists recommend to have related topics links after every article.

Why?
This help to keep visitors in the website for long time and avoid higher bounce rate.
Of course, search engine crawlers works better when internal pages from your website are linked each other

There are a lot of more benefits when using related topics after every article, but my English is not good enough for give extensive explanations and details.

Most of the successful websites around the world already have this option enabled.

I didn't know that icon means solved.
I always choose that icon because is the most representative icon for new stuff.
but now I know what it really means, I going to try to replace all of them one by one.
no promise.

Thanks for the info.

I could see how you would think that. At the end of the url you can see it say "solved" as seen here: www.kunena.org/media/kunena/topicicons/default/user/solved.png

I suggest right clicking the other icons to see what the file name is to better understand what the developers intended them to be. Do note that on our own site's it's what we intend them to be.

THIS IS A MUST!
I don't understand why this is not in Kunena by default.

Yes, but only if the database table is type MyISAM.

There may be performance considerations to be investigated if people change from the more common/typically-used InnoDB type. :unsure:
