I will deal in layer.

Example code: (Add override function below in your theme.php)

function main_parts($content) {

  if($this->template == 'ask') {

    if(isset($content['form']['fields']['content']['value'])) {

      $value = &$content['form']['fields']['content']['value'];

      if(empty($value)) {

        if(qa_opt('editor_for_qs') == '')

          $value = 'Hi'.PHP_EOL.PHP_EOL.'[your question]';

        else

          $value = '<p>Hi</p><p>[your question]</p>';

      }

    }

  } else if($this->template == 'question') {

    if(isset($content['a_form']['fields']['content']['value'])) {

      $value = &$content['a_form']['fields']['content']['value'];

      if(empty($value))

        if(qa_opt('editor_for_as') == '')

          $value = 'Hi'.PHP_EOL.PHP_EOL.'[your answer]';

        else

          $value = '<p>Hi</p><p>[your answer]</p>';

    }

    if(isset($content['q_view']['c_form']['fields']['content']['value'])) {

      $value = &$content['q_view']['c_form']['fields']['content']['value'];

      if(empty($value))

        if(qa_opt('editor_for_cs') == '')

          $value = '[your comment]';

        else

          $value = '<p>[your comment]</p>';

    }

    if(isset($content['a_list']['as'])) {

      $as = &$content['a_list']['as'];

      if(is_array($as)) {

        foreach($as as $key=>$a) {

          if(isset($as[$key]['c_form']['fields']['content']['value'])) {

            $value = &$as[$key]['c_form']['fields']['content']['value'];

            if(empty($value))

              if(qa_opt('editor_for_cs') == '')

                $value = '[your comment]';

              else

                $value = '<p>[your comment]</p>';

          }

        }

      }

    }

  }

  qa_html_theme_base::main_parts($content);

}
