_Not sure how this should be processed, but I moved the thread for now just to declutter the original topic._ The 2026 Feb 3 announcement [Renaming FAQ to Guidelines](https://meta.discourse.org/t/renaming-faq-to-guidelines/395099?silent=true) currently says the change is available if you simply “opt in.” It could use an update noting that self-hosters must enable the hidden site setting `rename_faq_to_guidelines` – and a link to [Using Hidden Site Settings](https://meta.discourse.org/t/using-hidden-site-settings/308773?silent=true). There are at least a few docs & related topics that now have some outdated information. I’ve found these – there may be more: ## docs 2023 Nov: [Customizing FAQs and Guidelines - Documentation / Site Management](https://meta.discourse.org/t/customizing-faqs-and-guidelines/286911?silent=true) – review & update 2014 Jul: [Update the FAQ, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service - Documentation / Site Management](https://meta.discourse.org/t/update-the-faq-privacy-policy-and-terms-of-service/18074?silent=true) – review & update ## support Some of these are open, some closed, but contain outdated info. Add note & unlist..?
