(Yeah, this isn’t Scoutbook, but it was last discussed here, and I don’t see another forum for it.)

Almost two years ago, @SteveCagigas [wrote](https://discussions.scouting.org/t/wysiwyg-messages/127024/3):

> The other option is to move your format-heavy stuff to your troop forum here on Discourse (which does what you’re looking for), and just use the Scoutbook messaging to send links to the forum thread on Discourse.

Is there a place here for unit-specific forums? How do we get to them?

It all depends on how you have things set - but for the most part click Categories to find them

If you don’t see your unit forum when you look there, one of your Unit Key 3 or a Key 3 delegate may need to activate it from IA2. Instructions on that are here:
