Tickets Add instructions when creating the ticket

[ivp]

It would be nice to be able to add custom instructions when creating the ticket.

This is an example of such instructions when creating new WordPress ticket at https://core.trac.wordpress.org/newticket:

This form is for suggesting enhancements and reporting bugs in WordPress. Here are some questions and tips to help you write a great bug report:

• Are you using either the latest version of WordPress, or the latest development version? If not, please update first.
• What steps should be taken to consistently reproduce the problem?
• Does the problem occur even when you deactivate all plugins and use the default theme?
• In case it's relevant to the ticket, what is the expected output or result? What did you see instead?
• Please provide any additional information that you think we'd find useful. (OS and browser for UI defects, server environment for crashes, etc.)
• Please create Gutenberg issues on the project's GitHub issue tracker.

You can search for existing tickets here. For more help, please see the contributor handbook.

In the mean time you could always handle this using an HTML widget. If there is not a widget position for the create thread page, you can always modify the template for this page to insert it wherever you want. I recommend using a widget to handle the styling of the message (e.g. wrapping it I'm a box) and a phrase for the message text so it can be displayed in the viewer's preferred language.
