Discussion Blueprint - Release note - VERSION 2.0

Spectrum Groupe is pleased to announce the release of Discussion blueprint 2.0, with many new features. 

We listened to our clients improvement requests and developed this new version with smoother navigation and enhanced user experience. 

New features

 

 

Discussion categories

Discussion version 2.0 includes a new feature: Discussion categories.

Categories can be created and managed easily via categories space admin configuration panel. While creating a new discussion, the user can select its suitable category. The author of the discussion and category managers can also move the discussion to another category. 

We made categories feature more awesome by enhancing Discussion page architecture within space: when user tags a discussion with a specific category, discussion page will be linked to a parent page associated to category. 

You can find more about categories features by reading this section.

Discussion index page enhancement

The discussion index page is the main discussion dashboard within your space. We tweaked this dashboard by adding filtering capabilities and different statistics as shown in the following screenshots.

Discussion Global dashboard

Starting version 2.0, a discussion global dashboard is available. You can access this dashboard by clicking on the Discussion link within Confluence's top menu bar.

This dashboard enables users to navigate within Discussion spaces and provides global statistics about discussion contributors and comments. It includes also a global search feature by content or labels.
