The SmartBear Community moved to its new home here on Discourse on October 21, 2026.
When did the move happen?
We made the switch on October 21, 2026. While it happened, the old community platform was read-only for a short time, so members could browse but not post.
Do I need a new account?
Yes, you’ll need to sign up once. Accounts didn’t carry over to the new community platform, but signing up is quick with your SmartBear ID (SSO).
Did my old posts move over?
Many of them did. We brought across popular and recent discussions and our top knowledge base articles, along with their accepted solutions and credit to the original authors.
Will my bookmarks still work?
Links to popular threads and articles will take you straight to their new pages. Links to recent discussions don’t redirect and will land you on the homepage instead, so the best way to find those threads is to search for them by title.
Can I still access or save content that isn't moving?
Content that wasn’t migrated is no longer available. Before the switch on October 21, 2026, members were able to export all their content and profile information from the old community platform.
I'm a returning member. How do I find my recent threads?
Welcome back! Your migrated threads aren’t linked to your new account, so they won’t show up under your profile. You can find them by searching for the thread title or keywords, and each one still shows your name as the original author.
Where's my product's board?
Boards are now called categories, and they’re grouped by product area: Test, API, Observability, and Open Source and MCP. There’s also a Knowledge Base.
What happens to my rank and kudos?
Everyone started fresh on the new community platform. You’ll earn badges and trust levels as you take part, and Champions kept their Champion recognition.
What happens to Champions?
Our Champions kept their recognition and help moderate the new community platform. They join the Champions group by invitation. Meet our Champions.
