Question-of-the-week
Do you operate a forum on any of your sites?
The idea for this week's poll was inspired by GPWA member ApostaGanha who recently asked about the platform folks use for forums. We're expanding on that question. Besides voting in the poll about whether your currently, or have in the past, operated a forum, be sure to include a link to your forum if you to have one so we can take a look at your forum. And please share what you've learned operating a forum, how much work it is, and how you think it benefits your site. View poll
