+  :depth: 1

+For overview information about discussions in a course, see :ref:`Discussions`.
+
+For more information about creating differentiated course content for learners
+in different groups (cohorts), see :ref:`Offering Differentiated Content`.
+
+
+******************************
+What Are Divided Discussions?
+******************************
+
+With divided discussions, discussion topics are visible to all learners, but
+the posts, responses, and comments within these topics are divided so that
+learners participate in the discussion only with other members of the same
+group (cohort).
+
+Discussion topics that are not divided are unified, meaning that all learners
+in the course can see and respond to posts, responses, and comments from any
+other learner in the course.
+
+=======================================
+Best Practices for Divided Discussions
+=======================================
+
+If you divide discussions, a good practice is to use a naming convention for
+discussion topics, so that learners clearly understand the audience for a
+discussion topic before they add posts to that topic. For information about
+naming conventions, see :ref:`Apply Naming Conventions to Discussion Topics`.
+
+You can also appoint learners as Community TAs or Group Commmunity
+TAs to help you to moderate course discussions. You might use Group
+Community TAs if the content of discussion topics by one group (cohort) should not be
+shared with another group. Group Community TAs are themselves members of
+learner groups (cohorts) that you use in your course. As discussion moderators, they can
+only see and respond to posts by other members of their own group (cohort). For information,
+see :ref:`Assigning_discussion_roles`.
+
+For more information about managing discussions, see :ref:`Managing Divided
+Discussion Topics` and :ref:`Running_discussions`.
+
+.. note::
+
+  Another method of providing different discussion experiences for learners in
+  different groups in your course is to use the access settings of discussion
+  components. For example, you can add multiple discussion components and use
+  each component's access settings to restrict access to each discussion
+  component to a specific content group. You can then assign these content
+  groups to learner groups (cohorts). For more information,
+  see :ref:`Setting Up Divided Discussions`.

+About Course Discussions
+###########################
+
+Discussions in an edX course include both course-wide topics of interest to
+all learners (such as "Feedback", "Troubleshooting", or "Technical Help") as
+well as content-specific topics that you add to course units as discussion
+components. You can create both types of discussion topics in Studio.
+
+For information about creating discussion topics, see the following sections.
+
+For information about creating discussions in which learners in a group (cohort)
+only interact with posts from other learners in the same group,
+see :ref:`About Divided Discussions`.
+
+For information about running and moderating course discussions, see
+:ref:`Running_discussions` and :ref:`Moderating_discussions`.
+
+.. _Visibility of Discussion Topics:
+
+Understanding When Learners Can See Discussion Topics
+*****************************************************
+
+The names that you specify as the category and subcategory names for discussion
+components are not visible on the Discussion page in the LMS until after
+the course has started and the unit is released.
+
+However, "seed" posts that you create in content-specific discussion topics
+before a course starts, or before the unit is released, are immediately visible
+on the Discussion page, even though the containing category or subcategory
+names are not visible. EdX recommends that you do not create posts in
+content-specific discussion topics before a unit is released. For more
+information about release dates and the visibility of components, see
+:ref:`Controlling Content Visibility`.
+
+In contrast, :ref:`course-wide discussion topics<Create CourseWide Discussion
+Topics>` that you create on the edx discussions configuration page in Studio,
+including the default "General" discussion topic, are immediately visible,
+regardless of whether the course has started. They are not associated with any
+particular section or subsection of the course, and are not subject to
+release dates.
+
+.. _Discussions on Mobile Apps:
+
+Discussions in the edX Mobile App
+*********************************
+
+Learners can participate in course discussions using the edX mobile app as
+they do on the edX site, but there are some differences in the actions that
+moderators can take in discussions using the mobile app. To perform moderation
+or administrative tasks for your course discussions, you need to work in a web
+browser.
+
+The following actions are not supported on the edX mobile apps.
+
+  * Pinning posts
+  * Marking responses to question posts as answers
+  * Endorsing responses to discussion posts
+  * Closing posts
+
+.. _The Upgraded Discussion Forum:
+
+*****************************************
+The Upgraded Discussion Forum
+*****************************************
+
+Course runs created on or after May 16, 2023, use an upgraded version of
+the edX discussion forum. Learn more about it `here`_. 
+
+.. _here: https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/COMM/pages/3470655498/Discussions+upgrade+Sidebar+and+new+topic+structure.
+
+.. _Content Specific Discussion Topics:
+
+============================================
+Content-specific Discussion Topics (Legacy)
+============================================
+
+To create a content-specific discussion topic, you add a discussion component
+to a unit. Typically, you do this while you are designing and creating your
+course in Studio. Follow the instructions in :ref:`Working with Discussion
+Components`. The result is a discussion topic associated with a unit and its
+content. Learners can access content-specific topics both in the course unit
+and on the Discussion page.
+
+.. warning:: Follow the recommended steps to add discussion components. Do not
+   create discussion topics by using the Duplicate button in Studio, and do
+   not reference the same discussion ID in more than one place in your course.
+   Duplicated discussion components result in discussion topics that contain the
+   same conversations, even if learners post in different discussion topics.
+
+For information about the visibility of content-specific discussion
+topics, see :ref:`Visibility of Discussion Topics`.
+
+.. note:: In courses with cohorts enabled, when you add discussion components to
+   units in Studio, these discussion topics are by default unified. All learners
+   in the course can see and respond to posts from all other learners. You can
+   change content-specific discussion topics to be divided, so that only members
+   of the same group can see and respond to each other's posts. For information,
+   see :ref:`Divide All Content Specific Discussion Topics`.
