Is there a way for me to see or test the admin options in the demo area?
I am just a moderator on the platform we use but I would like to see which options could be of use without having to install the whole thing just to do that.
Sure, sign up for a free trial at discourse.org/buy.
Thanks, I’ll do it right away 
[edit]
Oh, that requires a Credid Card number that I don’t have… Oh, well, I guess I’ll install it on my PC. Thanks anyway

Yep, for security and anti-fraud we require the card up front. No charges are made to it, we just verify that it’s a real card.
