Hi Salvo 

Concerning Discover Coach ad Share we are working on a specific improvement on the Q&A widget , will be possible to select what Q/A show 

For all the Q&A visibile to the user (Current Behavior) 

For Q&A of a Specific channel (NEW)

“Company Generic” Q&A that are not linked to a specific channel or a specific content (NEW)

If one of the last 2 option is selected, will be possible to ask questions (and answer) directly from the widget 

So creating a page with this widget, and selecting the “Company Generic” t you can create a page that will work like a Community.  

Moreover we planned many improvements in the Widget and Q/A functionality,

  • More management capability (e.g. delete the single questions),
  • Allow to mention people and content within a question or an answer,
  • Being able to answer an answer (and not only the question itself)
  • Allow user to follow a topic or an user and get notification when there are updates

All this new functionality will be released in different phases as soon as they get ready, starting from Q4 for the mentions that are already under development by our teams, the customization of the visibility of the widget at the moment is planned for later this year or beginning next year

 

ciao

@Marco.T Thanks for sharing the enhancements planned for the Q&A. That’s very exciting! And thanks @Salvo for asking the question! 
 

Still hoping for a forum widget that’s not linked to an asset/specific content as has been discussed over here: 

We are launching a community along with gamification for our college mentors for the fall school year. I am trying my best to use the workaround provided by @GingerG in that post but it’s still a little clunky having it attached to a course. Anyway, just wanted to do yet another shout out for that. I think many of us in the community are inspired and hoping to replicate some of the useful (and cool) functionality here in Docebo community. We would love go with a third party provider like this one (InSided) for our learning community but we can’t make the cost justification and there are advantages to keeping the “community of learners” in the learning management system so seeing some expanded functionality in this vein in Docebo would be a fantastic. Thanks for keeping the new features coming!

Hi @Cindy McElhinney  the Q&A widget will allow (with the improvement) to not be linked to assets or specific content

will be possible to have “platform general” (so not linked to anything) or linked to a channel

@Marco.T Yes, but the Q&A widget is not as flexible as the forum widget as we want to organize the posts a bit as in the example below.

That sounds great, looking forward to seeing what this looks like.  Our learners struggle with the need to add an asset to start a conversation.
