@cjeller1592 et al,

A few question for my write.as sites:

- best practice way to make a link at the top to a tag/category be live to that page? (I forgot where to find this)

- What forum is this Discuss Write.as? Is it a good way to have a forum on the same domain as my site?

Thanks for your help!

Hi @DeaconPatrick, I would be glad to address both questions in order:

1. Do you mean have a pinned post go directly to the tag/category url? If so, you can achieve this through [this solution outlined on a previous topic of yours](https://discuss.write.as/t/active-link-to-other-webpage-in-pinned-post-on-landing-page/367/4).

2. The forum software that runs Discuss Write.as is called [Discourse](https://www.discourse.org/). It is a good way to have a forum on the same domain as your site. Here is more about subdomain support with Discourse in [this post](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-your-domain-name-for-hosted-discourse/21827).

Hope that helps!

Thank you, @cjeller1592! Not having short term memory for a bludgeoned brain makes help like this invaluable!

With gratitude,
