Individual DiscussionDefinition

An administrator can configure the DiscussionDefinition of an individual item that is based on the DiscussionTemplate. This is used when a user (administrator) explicitly expressed a desire to change how the Secure Messages are aggregated for that item. In case the user wants to change at least one of Feeds that is associated with the DiscussionTemplate for this item. Thus, two items of the same ItemType can have discussions that are differently defined.

To change the settings in the individual item using DiscussionDefinition, do the following:

  1. Open an instance of an item that has been enabled for Secure Social.

  1. Click on Actions from the Item toolbar and select Change Discussion Definition.

This opens the DiscussionDefinition item tear-off window.
