+1Hi!
I’d love a way to create a URL with parameters that allow me to pre-fill the Description field. That way I could make templates for certain types of topics that someone can then pre-fill with the click of a link.
The placeholder text is fine for generic instructions, but I’d love to add actual text to this box via URL parameters:
Is that possible?

For actual pre-filled text the script shared in “Start a topic widget” is the way to go… it is simply a matter of changing the class of the container to:
post__content--new-editor post__content post__content--openingPost cke_editable cke_editable_themed cke_contents_ltr cke_show_bordersand it will no longer be placeholder text.

I don’t think this is possible right now, but it could be in the future! :)
A quick search found a potentially related idea too.
Does that sound about right?
You might be interested in this question where a form on the homepage can be filled and points to the new topic page with the form content pre-filled:
And there is also a very simple answer for the new topic page to open with a type of topic to start being pre-selected based on the url parameter:
If you’re familiar with how these are done you should be able to figure out what you want to achieve! (There is a trick with the class to go from placeholder text to actual content).
