Blogs and Pages


Members of the community can post their own blogs or pages to the community content page. These pages should have content relevant to the topic of the page on which they are hosted. Members are encouraged to share their own insight and/or analysis, plus any other relevant resources they may wish to share.

Community pages are an excellent way to find other members with relevant expertise to the topic of the page on which they are hosted.

To add a new page, click the add link in the blogs and pages section. Then enter in a title and a URL to your custom content. Your page will appear in the community blogs and pages list. You can remove your page at any time. In addition, you may edit the content on your page and the edits will flow through to other users (as long as you do not change the URL)

For information about creating custom blogs, please see the blogs app.

Chat Rooms


Chat rooms are rooms that are currently being hosted by members of the community. Chat rooms use the chat app to host the room. (you do not need to have it installed to create a room, or connect to a room)

To create a chat room, click the add link in the chat room section. You will be prompted for a name for the room. Enter a name and click the add button. Your room will be added to the chat room section, and a new tab will open with your room opened in the chat app.

Your room will only be listed in the community chat section as long as you remain in the room. When you leave the room, the room will continue, but it will be removed from the list of live rooms in the community section.

Question Board


Question boards are boards where community members can post questions, or submit answers to questions posted by other users.
