Introduction


Welcome to Community Talks by Open Social! We're happy you are here. Below you will learn why we created this community and how you can begin contributing!  


Why did we create this community?

We created this community for three main reasons. 

1. To provide all manuals and guides on each feature that is available on an Open social installation; this includes core features or extensions. We provide detailed manuals from each role perspective, such as site manager, content manager, and logged-in/ verified user. Community talks is a one stop chop for all your questions regarding Open Social features. 

2.To provide a space for all our Open Social clients to connect, help and learn from each other. Here you can ask your fellow community managers for advice or simply share your success stories. Some examples are below?

  • Are you new to community management and have some questions? Or are you already experienced and want to share your knowledge with others?

  • Have you ever asked yourself: how did other communities deal with certain issues? How did they tackle it?

  • Do want to ask for general community advice or examples?

  • Do want to bounce off and discuss your ideas with others in your field?

3. To provide direct communication to the Open Social team. We share any updated on Open Social in this platform. This includes the release notes, the roadmap, webinars, and any company information we would like to share with our clients.
