Display helpdesk solution to portal users

Enabling the feature enables portal users to view the solution on the portal; this gives the user insight into how the ticket was resolved so that going forward, this will serve as a knowledge base for them and, in case the problem reappears, the user can carry out the solution steps and solve the problem on their own.
