Status: Changes to the Community Forum and a new Community Portal

Hi everyone! :slight_smile:

Update (Aug 30, 2022) - the changes are in place.

The new Greenbone Community Portal is live at:

so head on over and take a look. :slight_smile:

It’s connected to the forum- so most articles and blog entries posted there will also appear on the forum for discussion.

And the forum (this place) is now located at forum.greenbone.net with some new categories added and others archived, if you have direct bookmarks you’ll want to update them.

Let us know what you’d like to see more of and also please let us know at Community Discussion and Feedback - Greenbone Community Forum if you see any issues. Thanks!

(prior)

We wanted to give you a heads-up that in the next few days we’ll be making changes to the forum categories to ideally line up better with how people are using the forum, and also try to make it easier to see where to post. We will also be introducing and integrating the forum with a new Community Portal website, which is a better format for longer-form articles, blog posts, multimedia and more.

We are planning the release of the new Portal and the forum changes for Monday, Aug 29, 2022. There will be some URL changes, so after we release please update your bookmarks and direct links accordingly. This will not affect downloads and feeds. We expect some downtime (2 hours, possibly more) while we transition over. We’ll be migrating a lot of content/threads from late June 2022 over (the rest will be archived), but things that didn’t make the first pass can be moved by request.

The attached screenshot should give you an idea for where we are going with the forum so far structure-wise and the theme will be updated.

And here’s a preview of the new Community Portal entry page:
