What is a forum?
A forum is a communication tool that community and project members can use to create forum topics and comment on them. Any member of a community or project can create a forum topic or comment on a forum topic. The community facilitator has the authority to remove inappropriate forum topics and comments.
What is displayed on the ‘forum’ page?
This page displays a list of pre-defined forums (that is the same for each community or project). For each of these forums, the following is displayed:
- the number of topics;
- the number of posts; and
- a description of the latest post.
Can I change the pre-defined structure?
Every community has the same pre-defined structure, which cannot be changed. The following forums exist:
- Help and support
- Implementation and practices
- Known issues
- Off-topics posts
- Open discussions
Within each forum, community or project members can create and comment on forum topics.
How to view the forum topics list?
- Click on the predefined forum for which you want to see detailed forum topics list;
- Click on "view all" to display all topics for each of the predefined forums.
