# Discussion Boards

## Overview

The discussion boards module gives your customers a community forum where they can post topics, share files and images, and engage with other members. You can control posting permissions, daily digest emails, and notification preferences.

Navigate to [**Settings → Modules → Discussion boards**](https://dashboard.nexudus.com/settings/2/2/3) in the Nexudus dashboard to configure these settings.
