How do I read a message in the community discussion boards? I only see part of the Q

Topic summary

A user is experiencing difficulty navigating the Shopify community discussion boards—they can only see the first line or two of posts and cannot find links to view full threads or reply to them.

The user is seeking help after setting up a free trial with Adrian Morrison and wants to:

  • Access community threads with relevant questions
  • Troubleshoot their incomplete setup (which includes 20 randomly loaded products)
  • Connect with Shopify Customer Support (unable to find live help or phone number)

They report that Morrison’s AI chat is inadequate for answering basic questions. The user hopes to learn from others who may have successfully completed similar setup steps.

How do I reply to a post on the community discussion boards? or even READ it? I can only see the first line or two and the post has no link or way to view / reply.

I’m looking for help after setting up my “free trial” with Adrian Morrison. I saw some threads and Q but couldn’t see/view/ask Q.

I can’t seem to find a way to get past his AI “set up.” He loaded 20 random products. Now I have several steps to complete w/no help. I want to find out how others may have been able to troubleshoot getting through his (incompete) set up and get all the way to published ?

Can’t find live help or a phone # for a Shopify Customer Support person. The chat is awful-it can’t answer basic Q’s.
