</div>

this is exactly what we are looking for!  
that way, we could basically force users to follow a specific structure in their [Journal topics](https://meta.discourse.org/t/journal-plugin/317785)

We were thinking of a plugin which would basically “inject” the reply template placed in the first post of the topic to the stock Reply button. The reply template would be placed via category topic template.

@exetico @satonotdead would you be interested in splitting cost for the development of such a mini-plugin?
