# Org Community Suggestions

As mentioned in [setup-your-first-space](https://dework.gitbook.io/product-docs/guides-for-orgs/setup-your-first-space "mention"), Community Suggestions are a great way to give a voice to your community and understand what their needs are.

With the Community Suggestions page at the organisation level, you can see an aggregated list of all the Community Suggestions from all Spaces/Projects. This way it's easy to view, search, track and manage suggestions & proposals in a central place.

By default you will see two tabs under the Community Suggestions page:

* **Trending**: A list of all suggestions ordered by the number of votes received for each
* **Recent**: A list of all suggested ordered from latest to oldest

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: You can add more views to your page when you follow the steps mentioned in [#create-templates-for-community-suggestions](#create-templates-for-community-suggestions "mention")
{% endhint %}

### Add a Community Suggestion

Contributors can also add suggestions & proposals from the org level page.

**Step 1**: Click  `Add a suggestion`  at the top right corner and select the space/project you want to add the suggestion to (including nested spaces/projects)

{% hint style="success" %}
Your suggestion will now have been created and you can share it so others to up vote it.
{% endhint %}

![ The suggestion is now created and can be voted on!](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2F4a4jrkLeYyU0jzDiU1Wm%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-04.jpg?alt=media\&token=79006da9-15fa-4bdf-8eec-883075b1ed00)

### Accept a Community Suggestion

If a suggestion or proposal proves valuable, Managers and DAO Admins can click the  `Accept`  button and move the suggestion to the space/project it is part of and start working on it.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: Once you click  `Accept`  you can also use the  `Add a tip`  button to customise a reward for the person who shared the suggestion or proposal, or choose to  `Continue Without`.
{% endhint %}

![Managers can Accept suggestions to start working on it, and even add a tip.](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2Fb0kQwFMU2Abx4J9duQRs%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-07.jpg?alt=media\&token=f66daf34-2e3b-4788-ac6e-008be33220a5)

If you choose to add a tip, you will be presented with a prompt to select the preferred token and add the amount you would like to reward the suggestion or proposal creator.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: If you have not added a token + network before, you can follow the steps noted  on [creating-your-first-bounty](https://dework.gitbook.io/product-docs/guides-for-orgs/creating-your-first-bounty "mention")before proceeding.
{% endhint %}

![Set the token and amount for your tip](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2FupUgOsTXdhH0lOnigVjM%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-07.1.jpg?alt=media\&token=c5299910-6826-4137-99ef-f4cdc964d506)

{% hint style="success" %}
Once accepted, the task will show up on the space/project under  `To Do`  status with the default task permission. If a tip was added, a tip sub-task assigned to the creator will also be created and show up under the  `Done`  status for payment.  
{% endhint %}

![The suggestion will be moved to the space/project and have all features of a regular task](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2F4X9yrd4iOjpcVKw9mhyc%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-07.2.jpg?alt=media\&token=ad841b81-c12d-489d-bf12-5a878efc2021)

### Integrate Community Suggestions with Discord

**Step 1**: When you open the detail view of a Community Suggestion you will also see a button to  `Discuss`  the suggestion or proposal.

If you haven't already followed [connecting-to-discord](https://dework.gitbook.io/product-docs/guides-for-orgs/connecting-to-discord "mention"), it will prompt you to  `Connect`. Otherwise you can proceed to **Step 4** below.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Tip**: We recommend setting up the Discord integration before making a call for suggestions or proposals so that they can be richly updated & discussed directly in your Discord.
{% endhint %}

![Click on Discuss to have a conversation about the suggestion on Discord](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2Ft5Fxs5qK2hruZMipwjJk%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-05.0.jpg?alt=media\&token=97267d8c-1168-47ac-814d-e8b31bc866f9)

**Step 2a**: You will land on the Discord Integration settings page for your Space/Project and can setup which channels you'd like to use for your community suggestions.

![Setup the Discord Integration](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2FSt64cDVJBw64JrLZMKYx%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-05.1.jpg?alt=media\&token=a87aa0a0-d8cd-464a-8e8f-2409ce3c6d10)

**Step 3b**: Follow the directions listed in [connecting-to-discord](https://dework.gitbook.io/product-docs/guides-for-orgs/connecting-to-discord "mention") to connect a Discord channel to Dework and receive an update everytime a new community suggestion is created

![Add a connection to a Discord channel for suggestion alerts](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2FslDohZUTkRj4G9Owo9Q9%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-05.3.jpg?alt=media\&token=49d1f39d-53f5-4876-bd86-1d26d575647c)

**Step 3c**: Follow the directions listed in [connecting-to-discord](https://dework.gitbook.io/product-docs/guides-for-orgs/connecting-to-discord "mention") to connect a Discord channel to Dework and create a thread to discuss the suggestions.

![Add a connection to the same Discord channel to have threads attached to new suggestions](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2FzsIc3mQm9XpDmrqFrapy%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-05.2.jpg?alt=media\&token=4afc2047-92c2-48ef-9b7a-1b5c1feafbdb)

**Step 4**: If your Discord integration is setup correctly, you will see options to discuss the suggestion via  `Discord Web`  and  `Discord App`  (with a handy  `Save as Default`  checkbox you can click on first to save your choice for next time)

![Once the integration is setup you can directly go to Discord thread from the suggestion ](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2Fob3zcA9p3b1aKoIUHLHd%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-05.4.jpg?alt=media\&token=7703073a-8044-4108-afd2-8323aa9fba9b)

{% hint style="success" %}
In your Discord, you will now see rich updates when a suggestion is created, along with links to  `Upvote`  or  `Learn More`  that take the user to Dework. There will also be threads connected to it which is great for discussing it, especially for feedback & follow-ups after it is accepted and being worked on.
{% endhint %}

![With the Discord integrations turned on you'll get a neat suggestion + thread combo ](https://1687189122-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fmz45Sf20wOeXiwishs9R%2Fuploads%2FbnIcVHGMQObPfQatseoX%2FOrganisation-Community%20Suggestions-05.5.jpg?alt=media\&token=8568d0f8-c523-460c-a1bd-f91cf3e69160)

### Create Templates for Community Suggestions

To streamline and better organise the suggestions you receive, create templates that users can select when creating a suggestion.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: Creating a template also adds new views to the Community Suggestions page so it's easy to drill-down to specific types of suggestions.
{% endhint %}

**Step 1**: Go to your Space/Project settings menu via ⚙️ and click on  `Templates`. Then, under  `Suggestion Templates`, click on  `New Template.`
