A Tag System for Thread Titles
When a user creates a thread, they can select a 'tag' from a drop-down menu to the left of the title field. The tags are then automatically prepended to the start of the thread title, perhaps surrounded by characters such as [ and ]. For example: For a media-based review forum, the drop-down menu would include values such as 'Film', 'Book', 'Music', 'TV', etc. When creating a review thread, the user selects which type of review they are writing, and when they post their topic, their thread title automatically reads '[TV] Tweenies' or '[FILM] Madagascar'. |

I've been working on something like this for myself.
Trying to keep it ALL plugin is proving difficult as from what I can see when the threadbit is processed only the standard thread table fields are available. Adding a new field to store the thread tag is easy enough for editting but to retreive it when needed is not so simple ![]() I've mocked something up just now that works by storing the thread tag in the title or notes field as they are available by default... (not tidy & tested enough for sharing for a bit) Hopefully someone else is having more success or better ideas? |

When the thread is created, could it not just be added to the start of the title field?

I've managed to work my way round to getting this done without file edits.
At the moment it is just basic set up with tags for threads editable & showing in forumdisplay. Bit of work to do on the actual admin side and then extend the tag displays to eg. the breadcrumb and hopefully offer filtering & the like. Can't say how long till I get the chance to finish it for a release though sorry - I'll be annoyed if it's not ready for myself by next weekend though so that'll motivate me if no one else is working on similar! |

I would love it if someone was able to make this hack...

I have actually made a series of plugins that will do this now...
@lucky64: not sure exactly what you're after, but the one I made might be OK. Drop us a PM and I'll see what we can do. @phlogiston: love the idea of filtering by thread tag. Might implement this myself. |
