Any addons for adding custom discussion attributes?
Hi all! I'd like to be able to ask users some basic questions (that can then be searched/filtered) when they start a new discussion. I think the Q&A addon does something like this, but can it be extended?
Ideally, this is what I'd like to achieve:
- User starts a new discussion
- They answer some basic info (e.g. what year, make model of car?)
- Once the discussion is live, that basic info is shown at the top of the discussion and can be searched/filtered to find others with the same basic info.
I know, anything is possible, but has anyone tried this before?
Any approach I should try first?
Thanks!

Would Tags not do what you are describing?
F.ex
https://open.vanillaforums.com/discussions/tagged/addon
Maybe? Can I have groups of tags, so that a couple dropdowns appear when creating a new discussion? I mean, I guess I could manually organize them and control the form fields… hmm…
It's not a solution but was made for some similar purpose: https://github.com/R-J/AddWPInfo
Maybe it's a starting point
