Once you've set up a forum app, you can create threads in it. Everyone who can access the page or community can start a new forum thread. When a new thread is published, all page subscribers or community members are notified of a new thread being created.
At the moment, it's not possible to share or react to forum threads.
Start a new thread
- Select Create a new thread
- Enter a title for your thread. Often, this is a question or a short statement. The thread title is included in notifications, so we recommend that it be descriptive
- Write the text for your thread. The field is rich text, so you can add formatting, lists, and media. Learn more in Using the rich text editor.
- You can also mention a user by selecting the @ symbol or typing an @ sign. The user you mention will be notified of your mention.
- Optionally, you can attach files to the bottom of the thread instead of including them in the text.
- Select Publish thread to publish it
Your new thread is displayed in the forum thread overview. By default, new threads are sorted at the top under any pinned threads. Anyone accessing the page or community can view and reply to a thread. Learn more in Replying to forum threads.
You cannot edit a forum thread after creating it, but you can delete it. Learn more in Deleting forum threads.
