The board topics are displayed at the top of the board’s main page, and act as a sub-board within the forum board. They are important as they are what prompt topic based conversation, and better organize your club forum board.
Board topics pull from your community's Tags and are consistent and available across the platform.
To add topics, navigate to the Board Topics section in your dashboard
Select Edit
Select +Add
Choose from the list of topics in the community - these are all the Tags loaded in the dashboard/community
Or, add a topic by typing in the name and selecting 'Create a new topic..."
This name is what will appear to users on the front end, so be sure it's accurate and public-facing
You can reorganize how the list appears to users on the front end by dragging and dropping
Select 'Save' to confirm adding the topic(s)
There is a limit of 50 topics that can be added to the board.
On the front end, any topics assigned or added to the board via the dashboard will generate a topic block that users can use to drill down to the posts and topics they want to see. They can sort 'Hot' and 'New' posts within the topic board, too.
Note: You cannot restrict who can post to board topics, but you can mark individual posts within the board/topic as moderator-only or locked.
