Why do some posts appear under headings, community, politics etc. And others don't?

If you are asking a question you have to have a category. If you think it fits no category, pick miscellaneous.
Stories are classified in groups.
Initially select "write post"
This page is shown
[image deleted]Select "Miscellaneous" if your question fits no other category.

The group titles can be used as a Story classification, so you can find like-minded people. They are a holdover from EP. Questions are an SW phenomenon, so that's why you see people using Questions for Stories and making up statements instead of a question per se.

@SW-User Yes indeed. I think that plethora of almost identical groups is a leftover from a precursor website called "Experience Project" or whatever (I haven't been a member).
But the good thing is that I can choose my own titles now, in the title bar, using the method that CoffeeFirst recommended.

@helenS I only use the group titles because that's what I did on EP. Then you can click on the group and see all posts related to it, and maybe add a comment to an old thread.

@CoffeeFirst It does not work for me. When I ask a question, and I select no category, the system tells me "You must choose a category first." 😢

All questions are categorised with headings. Stories are not

Doesn't it depend what you choose when you ask a question

favoritism.
Harriet03 · 41-45, F
@SW-User lol.. but I'd like to know.. 🤔
CoffeeFirst · 56-60, F
@helenS That is the umbrella category (not a group). You still write your on headline in the Question field. And any text goes in the Details field.

don't you choose which one you pick when you take the post?
