In a discussion titled “How-to use Discourse for managing a collaborative newsletter?” under the Support category, commercial seeks advice on leveraging Discourse to create a weekly collaborative newsletter highlighting top community members, aiming to avoid external tools like Google Docs. Lilly suggests the Discourse Newsletter Integration plugin and later recommends Discourse Docs with Shared Drafts for collaborative content creation, which commercial finds promising. Lilly also mentions the Page Publishing feature. Additionally, mattdm proposes using the Scheduled Post feature: draft newsletter content in a restricted category and schedule posts for publication when ready. The thread highlights built-in Discourse tools and plugins that support collaborative newsletter workflows without relying on third-party platforms.
Looking for a new way to engage our community and highlight our best members? Consider using Discourse to create a weekly collaborative newsletter!
Our community is looking to do just that. We have a LinkedIn group and an associated forum, forum.salesty.com and we want to use the newsletter linkedin feature to showcase our top members and keep the community engaged with weekly topics.

I’ve seen this plugin, thank you.
My question is more about writing, a solution for the collaborative creation of content. To avoid using an external tool like google doc or PublishWithMe
The Scheduled Post feature might help — have a restricted category for newsletter-writing and draft posts there. When they are ready, schedule them to publish.
