Board Thread:News and Announcements/@comment-27050243-20180821155657

Since Forums are being replaced with Discussions in the future, here is how we will handle some things.

'''Where are the previous forum threads going? '''

They will be in a category called “Forum Archive”. Users should not post here since this is just for the previous forum threads. All threads here except for newer threads (until they get old) will be locked.

What categories will we use?

It will mostly be the same as the forum. Here is what we will use:


 * News and Announcements


 * General


 * Advertisements and Events


 * Kart Kingdom


 * Questions and Answers


 * Polls


 * Files


 * Art


 * Theories


 * Roleplaying


 * PBS Kids


 * Games Tent

How will we hightlight multiple things with announcements?

There will be a highlights page with two sections: important posts and other posts.

When a new important post is posted, an announcement will be sent. The post will stay there on the page until it becomes outdated. Only posts that are important to the wiki or Kart Kingdom should be in this section.

Any other posts can be added to the other posts section. An announcement will not be sent when one is added, but users will still see them on the page. These posts will stay there for 2 weeks.
