Note
This version of the guide covers the new PHP-based rendering of Documentation with the TYPO3 Documentation theme.
If the project you are looking at has a file Documentation/guides.xml it is using the new rendering.
Otherwise, consider to migrate the Documentation or head over to the legacy version of this guide: How to document, Sphinx based.
Help & Support
Get help on writing documentation
If you wish to contribute to the docs, have questions about the documentation or run into problems, the TYPO3 slack workspace is the place to be.
In order to join the slack workspace, you must Register for TYPO3's Slack Platform. On that page, you will also find information about the most important channels.
The channel #typo3-documentation is your channel of choice for everything concerning TYPO3 documentation.
If you have some general TYPO3 support issues, please use #typo3-cms for that.
If you are not sure which channel to use for your question you can use #random where you get direct help or a hint for the right channel.
Hint
Do not ask if you can ask a question. Ask your question directly.
Get help on using documentation
The same method as in Get help on writing documentation applies: Post your question in the #typo3-documentation channel.
Don't worry, you will not be frowned upon if you don't know something. Engagement and curiosity is a good thing! You may even have stumbled upon something that is not documented well or is not user friendly. In that case, let us know about it!
Contact the Documentation Team
If you wish to contact the Documentation Team, you can also use the #typo3-documentation channel on Slack.
Additionally, you can contact us via email.
General support for TYPO3
Go to https://typo3.org/help/. There, you will also be directed to the Slack channel #typo3-cms, but some other methods for getting help and support are listed as well.
