*[http://boards.ancestry.com.au/localities.asia.india.general/mb.ashx Rootsweb India Message Board] Posts , It is advised posts are gatewayed (reposted) to the India List so you only need to post once. '''Note''': Currently however, currently (December 2015January 2017), (and for at least a year or more prior period), this feature is '''not''' operating. Note that When the feature was operating, many people prefer preferred to reply to the India List, rather than to the Message Board, (as you don't need a password for the former), so you are likely to get more immediate responses if you post your query on the India List. However, the Message Board has the advantage that you can include an attachment, such as a photograph. Also, it is probably better for replies which may be made in the future. Currently, If you post on the Message Board, including an attachment, also post an advice on the India List.

In addition to hosting message boards the site contains topics of general genealogical interest.
*[http://www.fibis.org/membership FIBIS Members] can post queries on the forum message board in the [http://www.members-area.fibis.org/ FIBIS Social Network]. A particularly useful feature is the facility to upload attachments - perhaps a photograph for help in identifying a uniform or place or a section of an historic document where the old handwriting cannot be deciphered easily.
