Our Expert Center widget has a built-in custom input form so you can now enable your users to send your Subject Matter Experts confidential and/or nonconfidential questions.

Social Edge Consulting can only add Site Role to the Access Only Widget by SE which gives the experts access to the Expert Center. This will give the Expert Site Role access to only the Expert Center not the GP Homepage. If you want to provide access to other groups you simply need to add that expert to the member list of that group yourself. (this is done at the admin panel widget level).
Remove the expert from the Site role or delete site role if not in use anymore.
Delete the expert center group (If you want to keep the questions, you will need to move them to wiki otherwise all the content will be deleted once the group is deleted).
Remove expert as a member (if the Expert Topic member will no longer be allowed in the GP Community, you can delete the member. You can reassign their content to another user when you are going through the process of deletion.)
Remove Expert from the Access Widget by SE.
Remove the old and add the new Expert Member to the Expert Center Topic Site role.
Remove the old and add a new Bio for the new Expert Topic Member
