Hey there! I tried to search in here for other potential threads on this but can't seem to find anything. I'm starting a Members Area but would love a way for my members to actually be able to ask questions within Members area content & connect with each other. Just an all-around conversational thread somewhere within the site to connect with them. I can't seem to find anything like that (which kinda blows my mind since it's pretty much a must feature for any kind of community type situation) kinda like how we have this forum here

I need a discussion forum as well.  Why was it dropped?  I've looked at other third-party platforms and its a pain in the  butt to have to navigate between them.   Is squarespace working on anything?

Having a chat box or forum for members sounds like a fantastic idea to boost engagement! It's surprising that it hasn't been prioritized yet, especially considering its importance for member interaction. Your input makes a lot of sense, and it's great to see you exploring different platforms to cater to your community's needs. Have you considered exploring options like https://omegle.fm/ for additional features or alternatives?
