There may be times when using Spree that the documentation doesn’t answer all the questions you may have. There are several other places on the internet where you can go to ask Spree questions, and they are covered in this guide.

Mailing List

The first of these places is our Google Groups mailing list. On this list, any user may ask any question about Spree and it’s up to the community to answer it, or in some cases, a Spree employee may answer the question.

This list is perfect for general questions about Spree. If you think you have discovered a bug in Spree, please file an issue on GitHub.

Questions on this list may take some time to answer, so please be patient when asking them.
