Any idea what could be causing the following when trying to make its own column?

vBulletin should add this to their default product!

Most useful hack yet...

Thanks!

its a pity it requires file edits.... I will wait until any other solution..

great hack anyway! thanks for it

I hope this someday will be possible without code edits to the original files.

Question.

How many phrases do I need to change if I want the word "Prefix" on the public pages to say "Version" instead? (Installed this in a forum that deal with software and I use the prefix to indicate software version number).

Suggestion:

How about adding a second prefix with an option to let those prefixes be dependant on the first prefix?

In the screenshot sample provided You have a couple prefixes for different versions of vBulletin. With an extra prefix You could create one primary prefix "vBulletin" and a couple secondary prefixes designating the version numbers.

Anyone have any idea why putting the prefixes in their own columns affects the stickies?

OK I didn't realise that the install file lets you view file/template changes. ;)

Nice work! I seem to have 2 prefix dropdown boxes when editing a thread though. Gonna look into that now...

EDIT: OK I've rooted through the templates and can't find the problem... When creating a new thread only 1 drop down is shown, but when editing 2 are shown [as shown below]. The first one has no effect, while the second works correctly.

Your threadadmin_editthread template is correct?

Hey, thanks for the heads up. I was combing through edithread over and over. Didn't even think to go there. I had duplicated the edits for the template, must have been itchy trigger finger! Everything's working 100% now, thanks for the support Mystics. :)

Here's a demo of it in action.
