Hello, Unregistered. This is an update to the transition of the forums to
Ubuntu Discourse
.
As previously notified, this site is no longer accepting new support threads pending its closure . Any such threads will be closed. Anyone needing support for Ubuntu or the official flavours should seek help at Ubuntu Discourse (see below).
Forum members will still be able to post to open threads until this site becomes read-only on or about January 9th 2025. This is so that those who had started help threads just before the transition are not left without support. Please do not post requests for help to others' threads during this period. Thread hijack posts, "me-too's" and similar will be removed from public view.
If you have not already done so, you can log into
Ubuntu Discourse
using the same Ubuntu One SSO account that is used for logging into ubuntuforums. If you are new to Ubuntu Discourse please read
this page
first. Please be aware that after your first login you will not be able to post any topic in Ubuntu Discourse until you have spent some time exploring the site and reading some posts.
The Support and Help section
will be the first to be open to you for posting. Thereafter, as you gain trust, you will find other sections of Discourse open to you.
If you are experiencing any difficulty using Discourse and are unable to post there for help, have a look at
this thread
which will be monitored by the transition team, and where you may ask for help if the answer is not there already.
