Hack: Custom Post Prefixes
Version of vB: 2.2.0, although may work on earlier versions but not tested
Current Version: 1.0.0
Description: This hack allows you to add custom prefixes to post, like "Poll: " and "Sticky: ", only custom ones editable in the control panel.

All feedback is appreciated, and everything you need is in the attached file.

NOTE: If you downloaded this prior to 5:10 CT please re-download it, I fixed something in the directions.

Version 1.0.0 released, go here
for details.

Ok. I installed everything correctly, added tables, bla bla.

Now I'm stuck. I have carefully read every post in this thread, and haven't found it.

The Drop Down box isn't showing up when I post a new thread. I don't know where to change what all the prefixes are in the admin CP. Because the Drop Down box isn't showing when I post new threads, I can't see them when I few that forum (big duh!).

Please help. AIM/AOL - WhiteLighterLeo3 or MatrixReality

Thanks. I don't have errors or anything, so it's not messing up my boards. Would just like it to work. Thanks.

Go into your admin cp, then options, check under the custom post prefixes, make sure that you have it to "Show Both" or it will not show the new ones. I had mine set to overwrite and they were not showing, again, make sure you have it set to "Show Both".

Hope this helps out.

SaintDog, duh, I'm so stupid. I clicked it over to Show Both and added my prefixes, but problem.

The dropdown box still isn't showing up when I go to post a new thread. Any ideas on how to det it to do that? Some of those posts on page 4 of this thread is really confusing. The one about changing numbers from 171 172 to 999, but then that won't work right, so do something. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THOSE AT ALL. Maybe that's what I'm doing. Any help? Still on AIM with names above.

Can't find the download link ?

It's on this page (4). Towards the middle to the bottom. Hope that helps.

I've installed this hack exactly as it say, but nothing appears on the admin CP. I've been able to see the dropdown list on the thread view. Can someone please help, or point me in the right direction?

Arathorn · #98 01-21-2002, 08:01 AM

Nevermind, I figured it out. The settinggroup values clashed with another hack. This is one nice hack, but the instructions and queries need serious polishing (no offence).

Also, apostrophes cannot be used. Trying to select a prefix with a ' causes a database error. Anyone knows how we can alter the database to fix this?
