REST call for "Is the accepted-solutions feature enabled?"

Can Freemarker in a custom component check whether the board of the topic page has the accepted-solution feature enabled or not?   Say some boards in my community have the accepted-solutions feat...

    Hi Dave,

     

    We store things like that as a "setting" for the node. This particular setting is called config.enable_accepted_solutions. There are REST API calls to get settings for a node (community, category, board/blog/idea/etc). 

     

    Give this a try:

    /boards/id/AAA/settings/name/config.enable_accepted_solutions

     I hope this helps!

    Thanks, it works great. One more note:

    It looks like querying settings requires the restadmin call. I see the rest function alone does not have enough permissions in this case.

      That's a great point. Settings calls will typically require admin access (or at least permission to manage that node), so when trying to access it through freemarker, you likely will need to use restadmin. Thanks for pointing that out.
