To access the full forum. On the menu bar click on "Forums". This will bring you to a page with all the groups that you have access to. The site wide forum is nestled under the "ISFSI Public" group. Currently, there is only one topic in this group. Once you are on the forum page, on the left side of the screen are nine boxes. To post a thread to the board, you will click the top button (which has a + button).

From there you will enter your subject (limited to 100 characters), message and attach any documents that are needed. And that's it!

Browse the other buttons to learn how you can stay engaged with the forum. You can subscribe to specific threads or add threads as your favorites.

Another tip.The threads, forums or blogs you subscribe to, or mark as your favorite will show up on your profile. Once you are back on the homepage, if you click on the box titled "My Subscriptions" any items you have subscribed to will show up here.
