what does it mean when im trying to pick a "best answer" then i click on the best answer button but then...

You waited too long and it went into voting. You need to choose before the time for answering expires.

You have to wait for four (4) hours after asking a question in order to choose the "best answer." That's to give folks a fair chance to log in and find your question. Many of us log on and off periodically during the day and we may not be online when you posted.

Once the four (4) hours have elapsed, go back to view the question. You can do that by clicking on "My Profile" near the top the page, right hand side under the word "discover."

Once you're at your profile, look under your avatar (photo) and you'll see a list of all the questions you've answered plus a tab you can click to see the questions where you were chosen as "best answer," the questions you've asked and the questions you've starred.

Click on the word questions and you'll see the list of your questions, click the question and it shows you not only the question but all the answers. There will be a blue box under each answer. Click the box of the answer you liked best. You will get 3 points for choosing.

Be sure you pick the "best answer" before the time for answering expires or it'll be too late, it'll go into voting.

I noticed today that some questions hang around for weeks without going to voting...but others get put in there in 4 to 6 days...like mine! Don't wait too long after they send you that notice that you need to resolve it. Always go to your profile and check your questions so you don't wait too long.When you first click on..it will usually say "you have some questions that need attention". Pay attention to it.

It means you waited too long and your question went into voting to pick a best answer....
