This one is for all forums, the one that this forum is using is specifically edited to work for this forum. If you want it to be like the one here, you will have to do some editing of your own.

Hope that helps

Not really. What would've been productive is if you'd have read this thread carefully, you'd then have realized that sometimes, you can find out stuff for yourself instead of be dependant on other people to do the simple work for you.

Not trying to be offensive or a jerk here, just trying to help you realize that okay? Don't take it wrong, plz.

No problem, I hope you can get things working and all, if you do let me know because I am trying to work it out on my forums also (not the one listed in my sig).

Well now I'm confused, I think I installed 0.9.9 even though the zip says 1.0.0, any wanna clarify what happened to 1.0.0 ..? This is a very powerful hack especially for what i need it for, we post movies and other things in my forums and would love to have something like this...

I'm sorry but I really need someone else to take the first step on this one I don't have a forum to play with at this time, but I really need this hack. Any help would be great.

Can you please tell me which file I should be editing that deals with the actual display of the custom prefix as its storing in the database fine and the dropdown list is working.

Which file could be causing it not to show up?

I've installed this hack over and over using fresh php files downloaded from vBulletin with no other hacks installed and i've created fresh templates each time and still can't get the prefixes to show up in the newthread titles either.

The only thing I can think of is that something in the installation instructions is not clear. The instructions seem straightforward but I have yet to be able to get this hack to work.
