PunBB Forums → PunBB 1.3 additions → Add an additional field in "Post New Topic"
Can someone teach me how to create an additional field for "Post new topic" only this field would be hidden from everyone except for administrator.
The additional field would be the same as the field for "write message".
I really would appreciate your help with this.
KANekT wrote an extension for adding a topic description - so that's very similiar to what you want.
Here's how his extension manifest looked. Best to probably ask him to code it for you? Maybe offer him a small token of appreciation 
[code=xml]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
