Hello Community Members,

We are preparing to migrate the Cypress Developer Community to a new platform and have begun sharing updates to help you prepare. There are a few things you can do before the migration to help make sure you preserve information and content which is important to you.

The community platforms are very different and although we are working to maintain as much consistency as possible some content will not automatically transfer over. 

• Images associated with your profile and avatar
• Area and/or content subscriptions
• Old mission/gamification badges (we are switching to new ones)
• Connection/Contact lists
• Personal Messages
• Bookmarks
• Saved Links
• Content in Draft form

Please take a few minutes to log in, review your profile and content to see if there is anything you need to save. If you have any questions pleas post them in the Community Information area and @mention Sara Leslie for a faster response.

Best Regards,

The Cypress Community Team

There are two primary ways to ask questions in the Cypress Community.

Make sure you are logged into the Cypress Community. If you are logged in you will see your name and Avatar on the right-hand side of the page.

On all discussion areas you will see an Actions drop down button in the middle of page and the full Actions menu on the right hand side.

Select Start a Discussion

Fill out the details

• Title
• Text field
• Tags (optional)

*The system automatically selects the Mark this discussion as a Question button. If you are sharing information and don’t necessarily need a correct answer, then deselect this. Points are awarded differently for questions vs. normal discussions.

Select the Post Button

After your question is posted you may update it at any time using the Actions menu

• Edit
• Lock
• Move
• Delete

We discourage deleting threads and questions because they are valuable to other community members and our team. If other members post responses they will lose points if you delete the content.

Thank you!

• If you would like to post a question or information regarding a Cypress product or service, it should be posted to the corresponding forum in the Cypress Developer Community.

Keep it relevant

For everyone's benefit please stay on topic. The Cypress Developer Community is specifically provided to allow users and customers of Cypress to help each other in using Cypress products and associated assistance from Cypress. Please refrain from discussing off-topic matters, abusing any company or product, or, in general, from posting in a manner unrelated to the resolution of issues regarding Cypress products and services.

Keep it courteous

Everyone wants to have a positive experience while the Cypress Developer Community – your use of this Community should not detract from any other user's experience. In particular, please refrain from posting anything defamatory, obscene, infringing or other unlawful material or information.

Your opinions are always welcome, but personal attacks and harassment ("flaming") of other members in either the Cypress Developer Community public areas or through Private Messaging (PM) is not acceptable.

Keep it clear

Please communicate clearly so everyone may understand. Avoid using slang, "net speak" or any other wording which might be difficult for all users to understand.  We are a diverse community and seek to provide a comfortable environment where you can easily get help from other users. We ask that you post resources and discussion topics in English language so the majority of members can read and respond. We also offer alternate language groups to foster interaction in your local language. If you need help locating an alternate language group please email the Cypress Developer Community Manager.

Keep it spam-free

The Cypress Developer Community is provided as a service to Cypress users and customers and is not intended for the promotion of yours or other third-party services, products, websites, or organizations. Posting content that would constitute advertising, junk mail, spam, chain letters, or any other form of solicitation will not be tolerated.

If you do share or promote your materials or products, please be sure referencing them is directly relevant to the topic at hand.  Please only share or promote materials which you own or have the rights to distribute, and which you provide free of charge in entirety on the Cypress Developer Community. Documents, links and downloads referencing content owned by other entities, linking to an external site requiring payment or personal information will be deleted.

Be careful

You should not post personal information publicly on the Cypress Developer Community including your name and address, age, phone number, social security number or other personal identification number.  Most people in the Cypress Developer Community are happy to help out but remember that their advice is theirs only and that you are responsible for deciding whether or not to follow it.  Cypress is not responsible for advice given in the Cypress Developer Community.

Community moderators

The Cypress Developer Community moderation is staffed entirely by Cypress employees. Cypress may designate certain non-employee members as a guest blogger or feature them as a valued member in the Cypress Developer Community.  This designation does not create an employee or agency relationship between Cypress and this member, nor does it make this member a company spokesperson.  Instead, the designation allows the Cypress Developer Community to know which members have been helpful, have provided constructive advice and have set a positive example and tone for the community.  Like any information posted on the Community, the opinions and advice provided by these members are their own and are subject to these guidelines.   

Cypress branding, logo and image usage

name, logo and imagery are protected by intellectual property laws and not intended to be used by non-employees.  Members are not permitted to use Cypress’s intellectual property in profile names, images, descriptions, any postings or otherwise in the Cypress Developer Community.

Cypress employee usage

Cypress employees are encouraged to participate in the Cypress Developer Community and are reminded that their activities here are governed by Cypress’s Social Media Policy.
