Can I add a redirect/alias forum?

We're coming back to Telligent after being gone for a few years on Khoros.  We're just getting started in creating our new Telligent community site.  Is it possible to add a redirect "node" that acts as an alias for another one?   

Here's what I'm talking about.  Our community is being organized into product groups and products.   A forum, for example, will exist under each product.  We also want a group on the main header that lists all discussion forums.  Possible?

If not, is there an option to create a plain HTML page to manually create the all discussion forum links? 

Thanks...I'm pretty rusty on Telligent management.

  • If I'm understanding your question correctly, your structure will be setup something like:

    • Support Area
      • Product Line A
        • Product A1
        • Product A2
        • Product A3
      • Product Line B
        • Product B1
      • Product Line C
        • Product C1
        • Product C2
        • Product C3

    Each of the products would have a forum associated with them, but waaaay back up at Support Area you'd want to have a list of all the forums so users don't need to navigate their way through. Correct?

    If I'm headed the right direction, yep - you can do this! Back at the Support Area level, you can use the "Forums - Browse Forums" widget and tell it to include subgroups. We use this all over our community to pull in something like all the Hardware forums at the top level so our users don't need to go dig.

    You can also change the "Forum - Thread List" widget to include subgroups too. This will end up listing content from across the area instead of listing the forums individually. I like this for letting people know what's going on in places they aren't looking.
