Hello, everyone. I decided to create a post on how to create a post, specifically one that contains a unique question. (Seriously, if you want to share a question, make sure it is new—run a search on the site first.) It took me a long time to figure out how to post content, and I still see confusion on the topic from members in the forum, even from seasoned members. I ran a search of my own to see what would come up with the keywords "how to create post," but to no avail. Thus, without further ado, the following is a step-by-step approach to posting questions on the forum (via computer... mobile may be different).
STEP 1: Click on the FORUM tab at the top of the page. Scroll down to the forum in which you would like to create a post. To illustrate, say I wanted to create a Sentence Correction question.

STEP 2: Click on the NEW TOPIC button.

STEP 3: Write your question, remembering to underline or bold (for a boldface CR question) as necessary. If you want to add a spoiler, you can click on the "spoiler=" button and add a title within the tag after the = sign. I typically write the question first and type in the "Topic Name" after.

STEP 4: Select the appropriate tags by rating the question as well as you can, selecting as many topics as may be applicable, and indicating a source ("Source: Self-made question," not shown, is at the bottom of the third column).

STEP 5: Either indicate the official answer or provide a deferred official answer. (I like to choose the latter option to see what plays out in the forum in the way of discussion.) If you defer the answer, use the dropdown menu to select when to reveal the OA. You can also upload images or other attachments or create a poll. There are additional options at the bottom of the screen.

STEP 6: Although this is optional, I would highly recommend you preview your post before you click the "SUBMIT" button to check for formatting. Note that in this sample post, you will not see a timer.

STEP 7: If everything looks fine in the preview, click the SUBMIT button. A timer will automatically be affixed to your post.

Congratulations. You will have created a post that will (hopefully) enhance the GMAT Club site and challenge and entertain its members. You can always explore other formatting options once you get the hang of the basic template. Oh, and if you are curious, the final post of the sample above can be found here.
Happy posting. (Please post responsibly.)
