# Require users to include topics in stream messages

{!admin-only.md!}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, users are not required to specify the topics of messages
|
|
|
|
to streams; if a user sends a message without a topic, the message's
|
|
|
|
topic is displayed as **(no topic)**. Any other user can then edit
|
|
|
|
the topic of such a message to set a topic.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some organizations prefer to require that every message to a stream
|
|
|
|
includes a topic. Organization administrators can choose to enforce
|
|
|
|
the use of topics in new messages to streams:

**Message feed** section.

|
Once this setting is enabled, any users that attempt to send a stream
|
|
|
|
message without a specified topic will see a warning in the compose
|
|
|
|
box and will be prevented from sending their message until they
|
|
|
|
specify a topic.
