# Forums

Forums are a great way for users to communicate with one another with regard to a specific job. A job can contain one or more Forums, each of which is broken down in terms of user defined categories. You can create multiple Forums. However, if you create just one Forum, it will always be named “Forums”. When posting to a Forum, you can incorporate files and images from within 12d Synergy.

## **1.1 Posting Messages**

Go to "Forums" in the job tree and choose the Forum name "Survey" or "General"
