new to this forum and I would like a quick bit of guidance (which doesnt seem to be covered by the site FAQ). I have a question I would like to ask but I can see that it has already been asked and answered from over several years ago now. I believe my question is dependant on time though and the answer may have changed since it was originally asked. How do I correctly go about asking such a question.

The correct way to handle this is to open a bounty on the question. Unfortunately, this is not an option for new users. You can either wait until you have enough reputation (75) to open a bounty or a higher rep user may be willing to open a bounty on the question for you to get an updated answer. You will need to include a link to the question for that to happen.

  • \$\begingroup\$ @CanCan Ah, that likely won't be one that would be good to get going again. That question is sort of considered off topic these days. Since it's a "which technology to use" question. \$\endgroup\$
