How to Access the “Ask Question” Page on Qukut

Asking A Question
Once the “Ask Question” page opens, follow the steps below (refer to the images for better understanding):
- Field 1: Question Title
- Enter a clear and descriptive title for your question. The title should be concise yet informative, giving a brief overview of the topic or issue you’re asking about. It’s essential to choose a title that will help others easily identify and understand the nature of the question. This field is mandatory, as it serves as the first point of interaction for users when your question is published. The title is crucial for opening the question, allowing users to read, answer, or edit it once it’s published. If you find it difficult to determine a suitable title, you can write the exact question here instead.
- Field 2: Category
- Select the appropriate category/categories for your question.
- Field 3: Tags
- Add relevant tags to help organize the question, improve searchability, and boost SEO. While optional, using specific tags is highly recommended. (Note: do not use ‘#’ as it is automatically added.)
- Field 4: Featured Image
- Optionally, you can add an image to your question to enhance understanding and attract attention.

This is a mandatory field, as it gives the necessary information for users to respond to your question effectively. Providing sufficient detail will help attract more accurate and helpful answers from the community.
