Hi, I was wondering if there is a up-to-date documentation page somewhere, which would include descriptions of all current Discourse features and settings?

This time I am trying to find an answer to this question: “In which cases user can delete their own post?” and I usually end up to this page: [Documentation - Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/c/documentation/10)

It seems to have conversations about different topics but not a complete manual, which I would like to have.

It’s difficult maintaining a Discourse forum without exactly knowing which features it has at the moment. I would like to also inform the users how the system works. Everything changes with time and up-to-date information seems to be impossible to find.

It’s hard to see all 100% features and settings at once, considering there are so many. See:

> **[Using Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/c/documentation/using-discourse/126)**
>
> Topics showing how to Discourse by reading and writing content, and navigating Discourse sites. (Index)

as a good starting place.

For settings, there’s virtually ~~hundreds~~ thousands of them, but you can see the full list here:

> <https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/config%2Fsite_settings.yml>

But that won’t help much. You best bet is to try features at [try.discourse.org](http://try.discourse.org), and look at settings in the Admin panel, where there’s descriptions for settings.
