Use the Community Forum

Ask a question in Community and moderate questions and answers across your organization in Edvello.

This guide covers asking a question in Community and moderating what gets posted there. For what Community is and how it differs from a course’s Newsfeed, see Community.

Asking a question

1. Open Community

From the sidebar, click Community.

2. Start a question

Click Ask Community. This opens the ask page.

3. Fill in the question

Enter a title and the question body. Optionally pick a course from the dropdown to tie the question to it, so students in that course can find it more easily.

4. Publish

Click Publish. The question is immediately visible to your org, and other members can answer, comment, and vote on it.

Moderating questions

Moderation in Community comes down to deleting and, for your own posts, editing:

Deleting — an admin can delete any question or any answer/comment, using the trash icon next to it and confirming in the dialog that follows. Authors can delete their own question or their own comments the same way.
Editing — only the original author can edit a question, using the Edit button at the top of the question page (it switches the title, body, and course link into an editable form; click Save to update or Cancel to discard). This doesn’t extend to comments and answers, which can only be deleted, not edited. It also doesn’t extend to admins editing someone else’s question: admins can delete another member’s post, not edit it.

There’s no separate report or flag action in Community. Moderation is limited to the delete and edit behavior described above.
