Is there a question and answer plugin for Confluence?

[Chris Reddick]

Hi,

Is there a Question and answer plugin for Confluence? Or is the answerhub the best tool to use for that? If answerhub provides the best tool - what does the answer hub integration with Confluence do?

Thanks,

Chris

Looks like as of today there is, directly from Atlassian. Still in beta: https://www.atlassian.com/questions

Hi Chris,

You might want to have a look at the new Confluence Questions add-on for Confluence 5.3. The beta was released just a few hours ago.

Read about it here or sign up to the beta program at https://www.atlassian.com/questions.

AnswerHub actually is working on this plugin right now. We'll actually have some neat two-way integration between the Q&A side and the Wiki side planned - allowing you to see related items and easily created new Q&A's and Wiki documents from either side.

I have created an issue in JIRA asking the Atlassian guys to make this too:

Hello Chris,

Actually we don't have a plugin for the answerhub to be used with Confluence but we have another plugins that can be used for this purpose, as the Survey Plugin from the Adaptavist, see below:

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.adaptavist.confluence.survey

Or the DFORM plugin from the DERS s. r. o., see below:

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,

LJ.

Hi, I have asked the same question but regarding Askbot

https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/143750/using-confluence-live-search-for-external-knowledge-bases

Does anyone know a way to integrate such tool with Confluence? It would be great to be able to search both Confluence and the knowledge base in one shot!

It would be great to have a plugin for AnswerHub
