Make Prefixes Clickable to Filter Forumdisplay · **Released**: 12-22-2009

This is another modification which should be standard vbulletin. I wrote a template modification, but have now written one that is just a plugin. This template modification will make your thread prefixes clickable. If you click on the prefix, then the forumdisplay will only show threads with that prefix in that forum. Then, if you click on the prefix again, it will show all the threads.

Click to Filter Forum by this Prefixid:

Click to Show All Threads:

Version History:
1.0 2009-12-22: - initial release by Lynne at vbulletin.org
1.1 2010-01-05 - fixed issue of bad link showing up in search results - clickable prefixes will only show on forumdisplay as they are supposed to now.

To Install:

1. Import product-lynne_click_prefix.xml

To Uninstall:

1. Uninstall "Make Prefixes Clickable to Filter Forumdisplay"

Not that I know of, no. I think you would need to actually modify the code to be able to do that.

Hi Lynne when I install this mod on my forum it works well with the desktop theme but it interferes with the mobile theme functioning properly. If not enabled I can click on the thread and go directly to it. If the plugin is enabled clicking on the thread only reloads the page in the current view. I have tested on two separate android devices. I do not know if this happens on IOS phones but I would assume so.

I'm using vbulletin 4.2.3. I attached a screenshot.

its in regards to this part of the description

in vb5 it will give any instance of the prefix, not only for that particular channel.....is this possible?

thanks lynne

In vB4, the link needs to have a forum id in the URL - ie forumdisplay.php?f=12&prefixid=p_3 . If you remove the "f=12&" part of the URL, then you get an Invalid Forum error. You would need to change the link to a search - ie. search.php?do=process&contenttype=vBForum_Post&pre fixchoice[]=p_3 That would give you all threads using that prefixid.

Wow, I wish I'd seen this years ago. Just installed on v4.2.5 and (so far) working great.

Hi Lynn,

Is there anyway that we can have the prefix table that lists all the prefix in that forum above like in the attachment ?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
