I suppose https://forum.bigfix.com would be redundant

I still primarily use https://support.bigfix.com as a jump point to a variety of the resources already referenced.

Also, I made a wiki post in the forums for this purpose that anyone can update and add to:

Which @TimRice just became the first community contributor to. Only took 3 years for someone that doesn’t work for “BigFix” to add something.

I tried a banner topic, and wow that was the wrong choice. It puts it on the top of EVERY page in the forum.

I then switched it to globally pinned, which is better.
