# Discord Forums, Raw Editor Improvements, Up from Project Root

## Discord Forums

As we’ve grown, we’ve noticed that the community has started to as well. Which is great! However, there’s a couple things in our current workflow that make the experience less-than-ideal

For starters, we had two sections: project-help and platform-help. Sometimes people would post in one, sometimes the other. Generally, this was confusing.

Additionally, people wouldn’t use the search button (we don’t blame you! Discord’s native search leaves to be desired).

Luckily, we’ve gotten access to the Beta for Discord Forums! We’re rolling it out today, and going to see where that takes us in terms of streamlining the help section.

## Raw Editor Improvements

We’ve listened to your feedback and have made a few improvements to the raw variable editor.

- The modal is wider and easier to see long secrets
- Variables to not wrap to the next line
- The order of variables is saved (locally) and restored on next load

We hope these changes make it easier to insert and edit the secrets for your application.

## Up from Project Root

Version 2.0 and onwards of the the Railway CLI now uses the service root directory setting. This also means that the root of the project (wherever you ran `railway link`) will be uploaded instead of just the current directory. This plugs a hole that existed in Railway where some settings only applied to GitHub deploys and not up deploys. The consistency across settings will become even more important in future versions of the Railway platform.
