Community

Community gives you a place to talk with other members between events and campaigns. Instead of one-to-one conversations, Community is for open, topic-based discussion that every member of the community can read and join.

Browsing communities

Open Community in the sidebar to see the communities you have already joined and to discover others available within your organization. Each community focuses on a topic, team, or interest. You can join as many communities as you like, and you can leave any community at any time with the Leave button on that community's page.

Posting and replying

Inside a community, you can create a new post or reply to an existing one. The composer has a formatting toolbar: bold, italics, inline code, links, quotes, and bulleted or numbered lists, and your formatting appears as you type. When you reply to a post, the original author receives a notification so the conversation stays active. You can also react to any post or reply with a quick acknowledgment without writing a full response.

A community may occasionally be closed by the organization that runs it or by the platform; a closed community shows a short notice instead of its posts.

You can edit or delete your own posts and replies at any time from the menu on each one. Edited content shows an "Edited" marker. If you delete a reply that others have already responded to, a small placeholder keeps the rest of the conversation readable.

Mentions and visibility

Type @ followed by a name to mention another member in a post or reply. That person receives a notification pointing directly to your message. Keep in mind that everything you write in a community is visible to all members of that community, so it is the right place for conversations meant to be shared broadly rather than kept private.

Finding what matters

The community feed shows 20 posts at a time. You can load more posts by clicking the Load more posts button as you scroll through the feed.

Filter the feed to a specific community you have joined using the All communities select at the top. Sort posts by Newest, Popular, or Most active to catch up on what's trending or scan the latest conversations; these sorts apply whether you are viewing the feed across all your communities or within a single community. When browsing the community directory, sort communities by Newest, Most members, or Most active to find the ones that matter most to you.

Use the search box on the feed to find posts by title or content. When you expand a discussion post with many replies, you can sort the replies by Oldest, Newest, or Top. For very deep threads, some replies may be tucked behind a Continue this thread link so the conversation stays easy to follow. Click to see the rest of that branch.

To explore all communities in your organization, use the search and sort options when browsing communities to find new places to join.

Reporting content

If a post or reply violates your organization's community guidelines, use the report option on that item. Reports go to organization administrators for review. You do not need to confront the person directly; the reporting flow handles it quietly so administrators can take appropriate action.

Moderation

Communities are looked after by moderators appointed by the organization that runs them. Moderators can pin important posts to the top, lock a discussion that has run its course, and remove content that breaks the rules. Removed content leaves a small placeholder so the rest of the conversation stays readable. If a post is locked, you can still read it, but new replies and edits are turned off.

Why this matters

Community gives you a persistent, searchable space to stay informed and contribute beyond the moments when you show up in person. When you post a question, ask for input, or share an update, you are building shared knowledge that benefits everyone in your organization. Engaging in community discussion also signals to organizers that you are active and interested, which can open doors to deeper involvement. The more people participate, the more useful the community becomes as a resource for everyone.
