Question forums

XenForo 2.2 question threads make a lot more sense when they live inside a XenForo 2.2 question forum, so what does one of those look like and why would you use it?

Question forums look fairly similar to discussion forums but they add some extra controls to allow for easier filtering of question-related attributes, like a set of tabs to facilitate accessing different sets of questions.

Because we know each thread in a question forum is a question, we can easily do things like filter to questions without a selected solution or questions with no answers at all.

You might also note the small check mark on threads that have been solved.

Control panel options

Of course, a full set of options controlling how your question forum operates is available in the admin control panel, so you may have multiple question forums that all work with different options if that suits your use case.

Existing functionality remains

Remember, this is still a forum and these are still threads rather than some half-baked new add-on content type, so things like prefixes, custom fields, tags, forum SEO controls, forced manual approval and every other feature you normally expect from XenForo threads and forums is present regardless of the specific thread or forum type.
