Can be selected as additional topic If enabled, this topic can also be selected as an additional topic. When added to a thread as an additional topic, the thread will not inherit any attributes from the associated node, such as permissions, but will be found in that topics thread list as well. It is recommended to turn this option off for topics that are associated with nodes that have a special permission set applied (such as administrator only forums).
