The administrator of a project defines a list of forums in the Project Settings (authors and subscribers can not create forums). The forums allow users from a project to communicate with each others.

Each project can have one or more discussion forums. Each forum has the following properties:

• Name: The text you want to be displayed to identify the discussion forum. This field is required.
• Description: A short description to describe the subject of the specific forum. This field is required.

To add a topic in a given forum, click on the forum name, then click on New Conversation. You can now enter a subject, a body and attach files to your message.

Two options are available (this is usually left as default. That is, you don't need to select anything here):

• sticky: if checked, the topic will stay displayed at the top of topic list, in bold
• locked: if checked, users can not add replies to the message
