Participating in the Community Area

You can participate in the community by asking questions, providing answers, or sharing ideas. If you think somebody's answer to your question is correct, you can accept it as the answer so others can benefit from the information too. You can vote on others' contributions. You can view all your contributions in one place. You can also track issues by following discussion topics or specific questions. When somebody creates or updates a question or idea or adds a response, you'll be notified.

Before you post a question, it's always good to run a quick search to see if the question hasn't already been answered in a help article or in the community.
