Overview of Discussion Forums

Forums are a platform for effective and fast communication. They allow users to discuss ideas, solutions to issues faced, and effective ways to do certain things. You can use forums to share updates and changes in the areas that are being discussed or the areas on which you want to start a discussion. You can avoid confusion among the developers by sharing the latest and accurate information. Forum topic accessibility can be controlled by using moderation options.

All user roles can access the Forum tab. Only the following user roles can add new Categories:
  • Administrator
  • Portal Manager

To open the Portal from the Dashboard, click the Portal link on the top-right corner of the Dashboard. The forums can also be reached directly via the front-end developer Portal without accessing the Dashboard.

For example, http://developer.<company_name>.com/forum



Note: The Forum tab is displayed on the Portal only when it is linked and enabled from the Dashboard. Under Portal settings, on the Portal Setup tab, in the Primary Navigation section, create a forum link. Select the Enable Forum check box in the Forum panel on the Content tab to enable the forum.
