First make a backup of editpost.php before you continue

Created a template called: editpost_description
Add this to it:
(Note: remove the spaces in { secondaltcolor })

PHP Code:

<tr bgcolor="{ secondaltcolor }">
    <td bgcolor="{ secondaltcolor }"><normalfont><b>Description:</b></normalfont></td>
    <td bgcolor="{ secondaltcolor }"><normalfont><input type="text" class="bginput" name="description" value="$description" size="40" maxlength="85" tabindex="1"></normalfont></td>
</tr> 


Save editpost_description.

Open editpost.php

Find:

PHP Code:

  if ($getpost[postid]==$postid) {
    $isfirst=1;
  } else {
    $isfirst=0;
  }
  if ($isfirst and $postinfo[title]=="" and $postinfo[dateline]+$editthreadtitlelimit*60>time()) {
    $postinfo[title]=$threadinfo[title];
  } 


Replace it with:

PHP Code:

  $description="";
  $descriptionbit="";
  if ($getpost[postid]==$postid) {
    $isfirst=1;
    $description=$threadinfo[description];
    eval("\$descriptionbit = \"".gettemplate("editpost_description")."\";");
  } else {
    $isfirst=0;
  }
  if ($isfirst and $postinfo[title]=="" and $postinfo[dateline]+$editthreadtitlelimit*60>time()) {
    $postinfo[title]=$threadinfo[title];
  } 


Find:

PHP Code:

  if ($isfirst and $title!="" and $postinfo[dateline]+$editthreadtitlelimit*60>time()) {
      $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET title='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($title))."' WHERE threadid=$threadinfo[threadid]");
      //$title="";
  } 


Replace it with:

PHP Code:

  if ($isfirst and $postinfo[dateline]+$editthreadtitlelimit*60>time()) {

    $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET description='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($description))."' WHERE threadid=$threadinfo[threadid]");

    if ($title!="") {
      $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET title='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($title))."' WHERE threadid=$threadinfo[threadid]");
