FAQs on recurring topics

Contribute Site feedback

AI-generated summary

The discussion, titled “FAQs on recurring topics” under the Site feedback category, revolves around creating FAQs for frequently asked questions on the Discourse platform. Canapin suggests that FAQs could help address common monthly topics, citing examples like hosting Discourse for free and Cloudflare compatibility, and invites community input on other recurring issues. JammyDodger supports the idea, noting it was previously discussed in the Community Experts Programme, and emphasizes that community members are welcome to contribute. JammyDodger also proposes including existing resources, such as guides on creating admin accounts and changing staff email addresses, into the FAQ structure.

I’ve seen @pfaffman suggesting on a few topics (here and here, and maybe in other places) that FAQs could be made regarding some topics we see every month or so, and which would provide clear answers about these topics.

For example…

I had a third topic in mind that I forgot, but I’m sure there are several others that I didn’t think about.

If you have ideas of other recurring topics for which a FAQ could be a good addition, you can mention them here.

Excellent idea. :slightly_smiling_face: I’d raised this as part of the Community Experts Programme, but having something more visible would certainly be useful as well. :+1:

And, just to note, people are free to create them too. Community contributions are always welcome. :slightly_smiling_face: :+1:
