Participating in Forums

Posted by Community Host on Mar 7, 2010 8:25 pm

Forum discussions are open to the entire community to create, comment and read online discussions.  

You can create a New Topic or Post a Reply to a topic (also called a "thread discussion") by following these steps:

1. Go to Forums in the main Forums tab in the blue navigation bar.

2. To create a New Topic:  Select the appropriate category your topic should go under or that you would like to participate in.  Then click “New Topic”.  On the next page, enter the subject for your topic and the message below that.

3. To Post a Reply:  click the category title and then click the forum post topic that you would like to participate in. Simply click "Reply" to the forum post.
Once you post your comment select “Submit" and your post will display in the category selected.

4. If you want to be alerted via email when other members respond to your topic, click the “Subscribe to This Topic” link at the top of your newly published topic. Then check "instant".  We’ve found this to be very helpful to keep track of the discussion.
