Suggest a user to post a forum topic with a default topic title.

In template feedback-no-search.php, I would like to add a suggestion to the user to create a new topic instead (since there is no result of the search). How can I make the searched keywords as the default title of the new topic ?

I think I can put the shortcode [bbp-topic-form] in the feedback-no-search.php file but would like the new topic form to have a default Title == searched text.

Thanks in advance!

Hate to answer my own post.. anyway, this works okay for me.

1. add shortcode [bbp-topic-form] in the feedback-no-search.php
2. use javascript to change the form default value i.e.
```
<?php echo do_shortcode('[bbp-topic-form forum_id=4135]'); ?>

<script>
FormObject = document.forms['new-post'];
FormObject.elements["bbp_topic_title"].value = '<?php echo bbp_get_search_terms(); ?>';
</script>
```
