How to Join Kicksite Community

 

If you are a school admin or employee, you can join the Kicksite Community from your Kicksite account. Kicksite Community is an online community where you can ask questions, suggest new features, and read responses and questions from other school owners and employees.

 

To join Kicksite Community

1. From your Kicksite account, click your username in the upper-right corner and then click Community.

2. Start exploring!

      

 

To search for a topic in Kicksite Community

1. Click in the search box at the top of the screen (beside the magnifying glass icon).

2. Type a key word or two about what you want to search for.

3. Click the search result that interests you to read the full content.

 

To ask a question or start a discussion on Kicksite Community

1. Click the + icon on the upper-right side of the screen.

2. Click either Community Discussion or Ask the Community. Both options have a little more information about what to post; Community Discussion will start a conversation, where Ask the Community is about asking a more specific question.

3. Depending on what you chose in Step 2, you will see a text box that either says “What do you want to discuss?” (if you chose Community Discussion) or “What question would you like the community to answer?” (if you chose Ask the Community). Click in the text box; if you chose Community Discussion, you can add a subject and then below, type a paragraph (or more). You also have some basic text formatting options (such as adding bold or italics formatting). If you chose Ask the Community, you can type a question (or a few sentences).

4. Click the Post or Ask button when you’re finished.
