What do you do when you first download and install Commons?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

    • I try to get it working with Active Directory so users can automatically get at it.

      Have Active Directory and Organic Groups play nice out of the box. Be able to have users login and be assigned groups based on their Active Directory credentials. Makes the administration of many users more streamlined and easier for the users.

          • I customize user profiles and fields
