== Scope ==

It is just an activity and a menu item... not tooo big. Look at the pr: https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/pull/391

The old design is is just an activity and a menu item... not tooo big. Look at the pr: https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/pull/391

~~We will also need hosting from SL, but Bernie has okayed it.~~.. ~~[[User:SAMdroid|SAMdroid]]~~ ([[~~User talk:SAMdroid|talk~~]]) ~~I will get it up and running once Bernie gives me an account~~.

The new design is a menu item and a popup.

The website is hosted on freedom. See the service page ([[Service/Social Help]]).

==UI Design==

Adds a thing in the activity palette, but that isn't too big. There will need to be a logo for the social help fourm and activity.

~~== How To Test ==~~

The new design also adds a popup with a merged native/web toolbar. It looks nice, but that is just my opinion.

1. ~~Download the pr~~

[[File:Socialhelp-new-design-popup.png|thumb|352x352px|Social Help popup (new design)]]

~~2. Start an activity~~

~~3. Start social help for that activity~~

== How To Test ==

# Apply the patches

# Start TurtleBlocks (for example)

# Open the frame

# Right click the activity icon

# Click the menu to open social help

== User Experience ==

They will be able to access easy help from the developers and community.

== Release Note ==

~~''The Sugar Release Notes inform end-users about what is new in the release~~. ~~An Example is [[0.84/Notes]]. The release notes also help~~ users ~~know how~~ to ~~deal with platform changes such as ABIs/APIs~~, configuration or data file formats, or upgrade concerns. If there are any such changes involved in this feature, indicate them here. You can also link to upstream documentation if it satisfies this need. This information forms the basis of the release notes edited by the release team and ~~shipped with the release~~.''

Added Social Help. Social Help lets users connect with you connect with developers to fix bugs, get help and discuss activities.
