Topic Templates
Topic templates allow you to prefill the topic creation form in a specific forum with structured content. This is especially useful for:
- Support forms (e.g. “Please describe your issue…”)
- Bug reports
- Feature requests
- Application templates
You can manage templates from the Board Config section in the Admin Control Panel.
Creating a Template
To create a new template:
- Name: A label to identify the template in the admin area.
- Content: The prefilled content that will appear in the topic body when users create a new thread. This field supports BBCode.
Applying a Template to a Forum
Once created, templates are not active until assigned.
To use a template in a forum:
- Go to Section Management.
- Edit the forum where you want to apply the template.
- Select the desired topic template from the Template dropdown.
The selected template will now automatically populate the topic body for all new threads in that forum.
Notes
- Only one template can be applied per forum.
- Templates can be edited at any time.
- Changing the template does not affect existing topics.
