Posts from new bloggers will need to go through
moderation before they're published. To bypass moderation, members will need to move up the rank ladder (although posts submitted to a group will always need to go through moderation). You can learn more about the rank ladder in the What's New post
Let the Gamification Begin!
If your post needs to go through moderation, please note that the moderation team may require up to
five business days to conduct each review.
You should always keep the following rules in mind when writing for the SAP Community audience:
Apply the right structure
We expect every blog post to consist of a beginning (introduction), a middle (main portion), and an end (a conclusion that wraps everything up). A collection of links or just a video with short text does not qualify as a blog post.
Write with the proper style, in your unique voice
We recommend a conversational writing style that is clear and easily understood. A blog post should reflect the author's unique voice. Therefore, we don't accept blog posts generated by AI tools such as ChatGPT.
Share value and your personal knowledge
We remind all bloggers that they should put the reader first. One of the best ways to define a value statement is to actually write one. For example, "In this blog post you will learn" or "As a fellow administrator of XX product, I typically run into this problem. Next, I'll share the solution I've come up with..."
In their blog posts, authors should share their personal knowledge. They should not copy text from other sources, per our
Rules of Engagement.
Blog posts created using AI tools such as ChatGPT don't qualify for publication on our community, and our moderation team will reject or remove AI-generated content upon discovery.
Posting a comment on a blog is a lot like replying to a message on a board. If the blog is open for comments, you'll see a post a comment link or a comment count link at the bottom of the article.
To post your comment:
You can post a comment to an article or to someone else's comment.
You can use simple HTML and quote the article you're commenting on.
Tip: Unless you have special permissions, you can't edit or delete a comment after it's posted, so be sure to preview your comment and spell check first.
Some blogs display new comments almost immediately. Other blogs don't display new comments until the blog author or a moderator approves them.
