Replying to a Thread in a Discussion Board

This guide will walk you through the process of posting a reply to a thread in a discussion board.

Replying to a Thread in a Board:

Step 1: Click on the Communication button.

Step 2: Click on the Discussion Boards link.

Step 3: Click on the discussion board that you want to go to.

Step 4: Click on the Subject of the thread you want to reply to.

Step 5: In the Message text field, type in your desired response to the original message. If you would like to add an attachment to your thread, click on the Browse button.

>> Note: There is a difference between Smart Text, Plain Text, and HTML. Smart Text automatically recognizes a link entered in the text box. Smart text recognizes the ENTER key as a paragraph tag and accepts HTML tags as well. Smart Text will also prompt to load images if an image source text is used when adding smart text as part of a content item. Plain Text displays text as written. HTML displays text as coded using HTML tags. We would recommend that you leave it selected as Smart Text .

Step 6: You can Preview your thread to see what it'll look like and then click OK to return to the Create New Thread page.
