Per-topic hints in Message Composer

贡献 功能

Some topics may have rules or some other generic topic-related information, which people would like to reference and re-read time to time.

The proposition is to allow per-topic hints - a short text, preferably expandable to a popup with longer text, where admins/mods/topic owners would put e.g. explanatory things about the topic, rules, expected behavior, information formation recommendation etc.

Example mockup:

An relevant menu item can be added to e.g. a topic wrench. Once clicked, a dialog is shown with 3 fields:

  • Short message (with a {{more}} macro which will get replaced by a link to open a dialog with the long version of the text)
  • Long message
  • On/Off switcher (to be able to switch it off without deleting the texts)

This is plugin territory. And I think it’s already doable with existing hooks.

This is already possible with new topic template text. The template text should explain what is required for each new topic and offer hints.

Topic template text is for topic authors and will only show when creating a topic - each new one in a given category.

The proposed feature is an entirely defferent thing:

  • works per topic
  • makes it possible to see the hint text while composing each new message or editing an existing one; as a result…
  • works for all topic participants
  • does not affect other topics in the same category

我同意这一点——我们需要在话题中提供帖子模板，以便结构化对主话题的回复。目前，模板仅适用于话题中的首帖。

如何在话题中的每一篇帖子中实现这一功能？

如果在分类设置中增加一个字段，允许为该分类下所有话题中的所有回复添加模板，那就太好了。

这并不会强制要求使用模板，但会将原始帖子的模板提供给回复使用。

太棒了！真奇怪，我竟然错过了……
