Higher Logic Vanilla Community Guidelines

Shauna

Welcome to the Higher Logic Vanilla Community. This forum has been created so that our customers can converse, get support, exchange ideas and connect with anyone else using a Vanilla powered hosted community. 

Every community has its own culture and boundaries and we are excited to create this space for you, but we also ask you review the below guidelines, before posting, as we expect all members to be familiar with them and will be held accountable for following them as well.
