How do I know whether everything has been setup?

The onboarding process was quite confusing. Would be good to point out that /channel_settings is a Discord bot command and not, eg. a an addition to the URL to which you get redirected after successfully adding the bot to your server. Afterwards, I accidentally closed the tab in the onboarding process and I can't seem to get back to onboarding so I've lost the steps that need to be taken. This now brings me to the question of; how do I know if I got it right? I've done the /channel_settings stuff to enable access to our #help forum but I don't see any changes in the dashboard.

Hey! Sorry about the confusion during the onboarding process - I see how the /channel-settings can look like a URL you need to go to, I'll improve that

You can check out your community page at https://www.answeroverflow.com/c/803236282088161321 - you can see the #help channel listed on it which means you've enabled indexing and posts should be appearing on it within a few hours

I'll add a way to repeat the onboarding process to help with this, sorry about that

Our onboarding flow needs some improvement, I'd like to make it so you don't have to jump back and forth between the website and the discord bot to run commands

@ivanatshuttle One extra thing from the onboarding that you may have missed since it exited early is enabling Forum Guidelines Consent so all the messages in your help channel are marked as public, you can read about requiring consent to display messages here

We're looking into also adding the ability for servers to disable requiring consent to display messages for communities that are public, that should be coming next week
