When you post in Forums, you'll have the option of posting as a discussion or a question.
Discussions
When you choose to post a discussion, you'll begin a thread that has basic options. Members can reply, like, share, and elect to be notified on any replies.
The traditional discussion format with threads that only give respondents a reply field and post button.
- "I have this question too" button allows a reader can select in order to track the thread in his Profile page thread list. The number of people who select this option is shown next to the statement. Clicking the button beside the numeral will show which readers had the question.
Questions
When you choose to post a question, you'll launch a thread with functionality that is slightly more robust than a simple discussion. Question (Q&A) - This format presents the thread as a question requesting responses. It gives respondents a Reply field and a Suggest as answer check box. Suggest as answer indicates the respondent is confident that his/her answer is correct. The thread starter can verify the suggested answer or demote it back to a response.
