I just want users to type the topic title only. Would this be possible?

Your mean a topic set to empty. You can do the following, but I don’t see any need of creating a topic with 0 content: Example: <div align=center> <characters> </div> It will appear to public as empty, but inside the post you have that format ^

Thank you. Well, I want to create a forum where people post short questions only. That’s why I only want people to just type their question in the title. But then other people can come and answer by replying, just like a normal forum. So, I would like to hide the content box just for when posting…

Set min first post length(maybe other posting setting, not sure) to 0 and you need to customize the new topic’s composer like hide the content editor or build your own one, I think is possible to do what your say.

the minimum value is set 1, sadly. slightly irksome as people can’t just respond with images and often have to enter a full stop just to meet the 1 character requirement. obviously minor, but it would be nice to at least have the option to customize it to 0, or possibly having images being in a post…

I have solved it with a plugin: plugin.rb 2023-03-06 after_initialize do # 2023-03-06 "Allow posts without body": https://github.com/tr-guide/site/issues/1 require 'post_validator' PostValidator.class_eval do def raw_…

I came across a similar need using the Topic Ratings plugin, where I’d like users to be able to omit the post content entirely if a rating is submitted.
