   Hi guys,
   I am speaking about the drop down text box "This topic is:" with options like not resolved, resolved etc when u r posting a new topic in this forum or replying to a post.
   I want the same thing in my blog like the one we have in this forum.
   I am using the Plugin TDO Mini Forms to submit a new post in my blog...is there a way to get this drop-down field via some custom field or smthing?

   Thanks,
   Troy.

   Yep. Use the Custom Fields Widget in the Create Form tab. Drag-n-drop the widget to the form and click the "configure" button. This should bring up a nice dialog where you can select "list" and add options for the Custom Field.

   Just use the Custom Field api in you're theme. That way you don't need to modify the post title, only how the title is display. Also means, if you change the value of the Custom Field later, the theme will reflect this automatically.
