Post and Category Types in the New Community

Jason Stone (Logos)

We are all still learning our way around the new community, so here are a few notes of clarity concerning categories and post types. I hope this is helpful for those wanting to make the most of the Logos community!

Category Types

There are two main category types for posts: Forum posts and Feedback posts. There are also a few subcategories of post types. I wanted to quickly go over what they are and how to use them best.

Forum Post Types

Questions

• The question post type is perfect for when you want to ask a specific question that can be answered with a single, clear solution. Once you pick the best answer, the post gets marked as answered. For instance, you could ask, “How do I make the text bigger in my Logos application?”

Discussions

• The discussion post type is great for topics that do not have a single right answer, like sharing user tips, finding helpful study resources, or chatting about new features. If you’re thinking of reporting a bug, add the “Bug” tag to your post and our team will take a look.

Polls

• Sometimes you want to gather the thoughts and opinions of other members in a fun and organized way. Polls are a great way to do that! Members can vote and discuss different topics.

Feedback Post Types

Idea Posts

• Idea posts are for sharing product ideas and suggestions. Other community members can add their thoughts by voting on your idea at the top of the post page. Idea posts have statuses that show how they’re progressing (e.g., “Submitted,” “In Process,” “Done,” etc.).
