Welcome to the Fresco User Community
The Fresco User Community (MS Team) is intended as a place where everyone from Site Owners to occasional contributors, can come together to share site building expertise and tips:
- Share design ideas and good practice.
- Explore the features and options provided by the editing toolkit.
- Share know-how on compliance requirements and how to meet them, e.g. for accessibility.
- … and anything else you want to learn or share about building better websites with Fresco!
It’s for you
FrUG is available to help you explore with other users how to build good websites, using Fresco.
It’s not a substitute for the Fresco Support Service. Members of the Fresco team will look in from time to time, but we won’t regularly be following discussions and will often not see or reply to messages here.
So, if you need to:
- report a bug or issue
- make a service request
- raise a question not answered on our website
- draw a new idea or suggestion to our attention
please contact us in the usual way and we will respond to you as soon as we can.
You’re welcome to discuss any aspect of the Fresco Platform or Service on FrUG, but please keep comments constructive.

Privacy
FrUG is a Private Team, i.e. accessible only to the list of Team Members. Access to Files and folders within the Team is also restricted to Team Members. The existence of the Team and its membership may be viewable more widely within the University. Membership is not moderated and may include University members with an interest in using or managing Fresco who do not have a Fresco user role. As we cannot know when FrUG may cease to be relevant to a member’s role, it is up to individual members to remove themselves from the Team when it is no longer relevant to their work.
FrUG members must at all times remember data privacy considerations when posting content:
- Do not post content or documents containing confidential/sensitive data
- Only share internal personal information – including names, IDs and email addresses – where there is need for this information to be known and if the relevant authorisation to do so has been given
- Researchers should bear in mind funding body requirements regarding data storage – Teams may not be suitable. Contact Research Services or your PI for guidance
- See the University’s data protection guidance for more information
The history of posts will be retained during the lifetime of the Team, in order to provide a searchable repository of the information and tips shared for reference.
