During the last few weeks, we’ve looked back at our QAEngine and considered all the notes we’d made so far. In order to enhance all the functions as well as help you to experience all the benefits a question and answer site could bring. QAEngine is updated to the latest version with some new options help create your own social website or online community easier.

Social login implemented

As you have noticed, QAEngine is also an online community where people can expend their social network, therefore, there’s no reason not to get advantage from the others. The latest version now allows users to log in via their social network accounts such as: Facebook, Twitter, Google plus.

And of course, admins can decide to enable this option or not. If you think that this function is not necessary, you absolutely can disable it.

Report a question or an answer

Afraid bad content will make a bad effect your site? No more worry, the new feature “Report” will help you reduce these bad things. From now on, users can report an inappropriate question or answer.

After that, an email will be sent to the admins, they then can decide to keep it or not. However, this feature has just applied in desktop version, we’ll implement it in mobile version soon.

    Hey ! Thanks for the update! Are you planning to add a user description/profile to the theme? That’s really missing now I think.

    Social Plugin doesn’t work. You add the Keys and after about a week they won’t work, and you have to keep doing that over and over
