Question vs topic

Hi

The forum is now dived into different topics. And under each topic there questions.
Is this a good idea?

When I wan't to add a new thread, I'm doing this in general by "add topic" or "add thema"
And the content of such "thema" is not always a question but also a comment or hint for other users.

So wouldn't it be better to raname
´"Topic"      → "Area"/"Domain"/..
"Question" → "Topic"/"Thema"/...

Gruß Ingo

Topic?

The only thing I see is that you create a question and then you can assign diffrent tags.

This is not really topic based forum.

Hi Stijn

That's the problem 🙂

A thread not always start with a question but sometimes with a good idea.
So I would be - IMHO - a better wording, if the current "topic" become a "domain" or "area".
And current "question" will be named "topic" or "thread"

Then one will start a new "thread" but not ask a "question".
Have a look at other forums/groups how to organize such form
