<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #000000;">You can <span>create an open</span><span> </span><span>forum</span> for group members to post comments into topics that are grouped together by categories. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #000000;">A <span>category</span> is a heading to house a group of related topics together. You can <span>create a new category</span> in a forum. The </span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #000000;"><span>category</span></span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #000000;"> can be accessed by all of the group members once it is created.  For instance, a sales team may create categories for each month, and topics within each month to discuss which promotions worked and which didn't.</span></p>
