A guide to posting in the Network VIP Community

This article should guide you through how to post in The Network VIP community (NVIP) and help you get familiar with some of Network VIP’s features. Here's how to make the most of your community experience:

Question or Conversation?

NVIP is organized into various categories to facilitate focused discussions. When creating a new topic, you have the option to post either a "Question" or a "Conversation."

A quick note on the difference:

• Questions: Use this option when you need a specific solution to a problem. Questions can be marked as answered, and you can select the best answer to help future community members.

• Conversations: Choose this for sharing information or initiating open-ended discussions with the community.
