Is there a page/resource where we can edit/play and test it?

The first post of this topic is editable collaboratively (like a pad for example). When you create a new post, you can make it collaborative via the ñenu button at the bottom right… Nice

Only the first post of a topic can be turned into a “Collude” collaborative editor.

1. Create a new topic
2. In the first post’s options below it, choose the ellipsis ( **…** ) then the wrench tool: then, **enable collaborative editing**. Immediately you should see the “edit” button with the two hands shaking.

For more information you can refer to the [Collude plugin’s Discourse topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/collude-a-collaborative-text-editor-for-discourse/96474?u=how).
