edit answer to accepted answer in schema

Question

Hello, my site is a place for questioning experts, so every question has one answer only.

How can I modify schema so that the answer directly becomes the best and chosen answer without choosing it, but rather directly.

In other words, I found that the answer appears on the basis that it is a suggested answer on schema and I want to modify it so that the answer is accepted.”

</form>
	</div> <!-- END qa-a-form -->
	</div>
	<div class="qa-part-a-list">
	<h2 id="a_list_title"><span itemprop="answerCount">1</span> الجواب</h2>
	<div class="qa-a-list" id="a_list">
	<div class="qa-a-list-item " id="a595" itemprop="suggestedAnswer" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
	<form method="post" action="../446">
	<input name="code" type="hidden" value="1-1626840019-5fc213705d7e15b45913376febb6b3c074b7220d">

Why not make all answers best then?

---

With editing code (i want that) or with choosing every question?

Ideally you need an even module which listens to a_post event and then select that as best.

How can I modify schema so that the answer directly becomes the best and chosen answer without choosing it

So you want the schema to return the answer as if it was chosen, even if it wasn't. This is an odd request, but here it goes :)

1. Edit your qa-theme/<your-theme>/qa-theme.php file

2. Add or merge this function:

public function initialize() {
    parent::initialize();
    if ($this->template === 'question' && !empty($this->content['a_list']['as'])) {
        $this->content['a_list']['as'][0]['tags'] = str_replace('itemprop="suggestedAnswer"', 'itemprop="suggestedAnswer acceptedAnswer"', $this->content['a_list']['as'][0]['tags']);
    }
}

Note I'm just turning into accepted the first answer only, as a failsafe.
