How to Start a Discussion / Topic

If you want to start a new Forum Discussion or "Topic", you can do so 1 of 2 ways - you can either click your profile picture in the top right of the screen and your profile tray menu will pop out - from there you can scroll down to "Contibute" and you'll see a button to Start A Forum Topic or you can click the circular + action button which floats in the bottom right side of your screen. Clicking that will bring up a pop-up menu - with 2 options - News or Topic. Make sure you've clicked TOPIC with the + button so you don't accidentally post your content as a news article.
