Adding New Topics Types

Each topic in a TikiWiki forum can be designated as a specific type. Each topic type is identified by a different icon:

  • Normal Normal
  • Sticky Sticky
    When visitors display the list of topics in a forum, the "sticky" topics will always be shown at the top of the list, regardless of how visitors sort the list.
  • Announcement Announcement
  • Hot Hot
  • Locked Locked
    Visitors cannot reply to any topic that is "locked."


You can use the different types to help site visitors identify important or new forum threads.
