how hard would it be to add a little check box for top topic under the close topic checkbox on the reply or new topic page? for example, when you start or reply to a topic there are check boxes for Email Notification, Show Signature, Disable smilies in this post, and Close Topic. How would I add one for Top Topic?

very possible. in public_new_topic_form.pl code:
###after:
$close_option
###add:
<input type="checkbox" name="top_topic" value="yes" /> Top topic on posting?
in ubb_new_topic.cgi code:
[qb]###after:
&WriteTopic($in{f}, $new_topic_number, @topic_file);
###add:
if ($in{top_topic} eq 'yes') {
%sticky = ();
if (-e "$vars_config{MembersPath}/sticky/$in{f}.cgi") {
&RequireVars("$vars_config{MembersPath}/sticky/$in{f}.cgi");
}
$sticky{$new_topic_number} = 'YES';
&WriteHashToFile("$vars_config{MembersPath}/sticky/$in{f}.cgi", "sticky", %sticky);
}

thanks jordo. that works, however it needs to be a little fine tuned. with that code anyone can top a topic and I would like for that option to only be available to admins and mods.

if ($in{top_topic} eq 'yes') {
my $is_one = &is_admin_or_mod($in{f}, @user_profile);
if ($is_one eq 'true') {
%sticky = ();
if (-e "$vars_config{MembersPath}/sticky/$in{f}.cgi") {
&RequireVars("$vars_config{MembersPath}/sticky/$in{f}.cgi");
}
$sticky{$new_topic_number} = 'YES';
&WriteHashToFile("$vars_config{MembersPath}/sticky/$in{f}.cgi", "sticky", %sticky);
}
}

thank you for the quick reply jordo. I am gonna go test this out now.
Edit: worked great. Thanks again jordo for helping me with this. It was always a pain to make a sticky post then have to click back to it in order to make it sticky.
