It provides bad information when a best answer tag is given an incorrect answer - especially when the correct answer is actually given in the thread. Please provide a way to remove an incorrect answer tag.
I support your suggestion, although I feel that the "Best answer" is often not authoritative - quite often users choose their own thank-you post as the best answer - and since the best answer is chosen by the questioning user, my personal expectation is not that this tag denotes an objectively right answer. But people less active in the forum might think that.

I agree regarding answers that are explicitly incorrect. However, "Best Answer" is misleading. The forum only asks if an answer answered the question. It does not ask if it was the best answer.
Therefore, it is perfectly legitimate for responses to be marked as answers that the OP appreciated even though they are not the very best answer. Notice that even the forum software recognizes this. "Best Answer" changes to "Best Answers" when multiple responses are marked as having answered the question.
Perhaps MVPs should be more involved in marking correct answers, as they would often be better able to identify answers than users unfamiliar with the forums or the Logos software.
Would it be helpful to change the language from "Best Answer" to "Accepted Answer" ?
I like how "Best Answer" sounds, but perhaps that is a bit presumptuous. "Accepted Answer" would more accurately portray what is happening and would potentially be less misleading for new users searching for answers. I do like how "Answer" changes to plural when multiple answers are accepted. To MJ's point, it may be appropriate to grant MVPs the ability to reject accepted answers if a user accepts a clearly incorrect answer that could be misleading to other users within the community.
Community Managers and MVPs do have the ability to remove a comment from "Best Answers"
In the three dots, moderators with such select "Q&A" on any comment tagged as "Best Answer" to adjust the classification.

As an Active Duty service member Logos (which I have spent thousand on) has become mostly useless to me since the migration to the Subscription model. Because SO many of the features I was able to use OFFLINE with Logos 10 are now attached to Internet Access availability ONLY. I understand that AI features will require…
How one currently manages notes is…rough. It would be amazing to have a clean, workable interface for entire classes we prepare for. Having all our notes and ideas in one place where we can manage lesson plans, individual lessons, create media and printouts, etc. Some of this is available in the "Sermon" section but it…
Please make notes more functional. They are still very clunky to me. I find I often go out of logos and work on a word/pages document outside of logos to organize my thoughts. While I truly value and appreciate all the work that has been done to make them more organized to find, I still find them overall hard to use. It…
All modern code editors allow for customizable color themes. Many of us spend as much time in Logos as a programmer does in VS Code/Vim/Emacs etc., so it would be nice to be able to customize Logos themes the way code editors can be customized. Ideally one would edit a JSON file with the desired customizations, "upload"…
I have 60+ highlight themes I use for highlighting the Bible and books I read. It's such a pain to constant scroll up and down looking for each highlight theme, it's time consuming, tedious, and results in duplicate work because of the manual process of looking for them. I think instead of the New Palette button at the…
