The wording of that post can be customized from the Boards tab in your Canny settings:

You can use this to give instructions or ask for specifics.

  • Each board has its own separate "create post" form, so be sure it's optimized for the board it's on!

  • The description field supports some Markdown like italics and bold text.

Adding fields to the create form

Teams on Canny Growth or above can optionally add three additional post fields to the form to collect more information. Learn more about that in our post fields help article.

You can also use the "create post" form in a different language if you have a non-English board. Characters from other languages are supported!
