Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Forum.module's current description is: Enables threaded discussions about general topics.
What do you think about this?: Enables threaded discussions.
Too brief? Needs more? Beautifully minimalist?

keith.smith CreditAttribution: keith.smith commentedI think "Enables threaded discussions" is short, to the point, clear, and thankfully, it removes the very confusing and somewhat inaccurate addendum regarding "general topics".

birdmanx35 CreditAttribution: birdmanx35 commentedHere's a patch to do just that. Feel free to RTBC ;)

birdmanx35 CreditAttribution: birdmanx35 commentedSorry about that.

keith.smith CreditAttribution: keith.smith commentedCoolio.
Comment #5
Rowanw CreditAttribution: Rowanw commentedWait, threaded discussions can occur anywhere, whether it be a news story, blog post, or forums.
What about this?
"An area for discussion between users."
Comment #6
catchYeah comment module does threaded discussions. What about just "Enables discussion forums"?
Comment #7
keith.smith CreditAttribution: keith.smith commented"Provides a container for threaded discussions." ? (Though I guess it doesn't really since you then must create some.)
Comment #8
catchHmm, organic groups does that as well. I dunno, I think we should just say that it provides discussion forums rather than try to describe what discussion forums are.
Comment #9
MichelleI'm with catch. I suspect most people building websites know what forums are. :) Keeping it simple sounds good.

Comment #11
keith.smith CreditAttribution: keith.smith commentedLooks good to me. Short and simple. (And clear.)
Comment #12
Gurpartap Singh CreditAttribution: Gurpartap Singh commentedHow about: "Provide forums for holding discussions." It would help ones who are new to "forum" term.
Short and self explanatory.
