I asked this in another thread , but it’s last post before mine was 5 years ago, so maybe it won’t get as much attention as a new topic. I have a question from a non-devleoper’s perspective. I’m using Discourse as our company’s ticket system and I have it set up successfully to create new topics fr…

Do you have an email from the customer? if so you can forward it to Discourse and it will create a staged user for them. There’s a little on this behavior here in the “forwarded emails behavior” I think you’d want to change the relevant setting to “create replies” [imagen] C…

It’s been working very well so far except for one client that uses their own ticket system to send support requests to us, once I have more clarity on the issue I may start another topic to try and get them sort…

Oh wait, not sure why I wrote “google group” - I corrected my post. :facepalm: I meant a Discourse group of course.

Well that makes more sense, but we actually don’t use groups. We use accounts only, and topics to track tickets.

Nunca me había dado cuenta de eso, pero si es intencional, ¡es realmente muy inteligente! Ese es el objetivo, permitirte usar una dirección de correo electrónico para crear un montón de cuentas de usuario de prueba.
