Moderators Functions - Change Threads Prefix Inline

Brought to you by Syrian Medical Society & Milado

A version for 3.8.x

Introduction & Description:
It is difficult to change threads' prefixes, thread by thread, the editing process of each thread to change the prefix is inappropriate and it takes a long time.
This product allows you to set a prefix to multiple threads inline, using the moderation drop-down menu in forum display page (see the screen shoot). you will save your time and effort.

Features:

• One-click mass thread prefix changing (You can select a prefix in the drop down menu and apply the change instantly to many threads).
• Remove prefix: works only if prefixes are not required in the current forum.
• All changes are logged in the Moderator Log.

How to use?
It works exactly like closing, opening, sticking or unsticking multiple threads inline.

See the screenshot
Attachment 77054

Limitation:
You can't change threads' prefix across forums. any selected threads from forums different from the current one, will be ignored.
This is because of vBulletin currently aren't able to check against the validity of a prefix for a given forum.

Installation & Upgrade: 3.7.0 beta 5 at least is required.
One step! Import the product file product-threadprefix_changeinline.xml and you're done.
Choose yes to overwrite for upgrading.

Installed, nominated & ranked I would love to see this work with inline editing (double click on table cell), but that's probably too much too ask

installed and very thanks

[steveheinsch]

Thank you for this much needed hack!

Ive got a feature request, probably a separate hack. It would be really NICE to be able to set permissions on groups that can use a thread prefix in the usergroup manager, possibly the forum manager so you can set that per forum.

Thanks for your work!

very useful, it should be a standard vb option in 3.7.

[verino]

Installed. :up:

[SauravG]

Just what I was looking for. Thanks.

I love this so much. Could you do similar idea with thread tag:

Inline select multiple thread and tag once, it will save a lot time for administrator.

Can we have:
1/ Line to seperate between main prefix category?
2/ Alphabetically order?

Hello,

It was possible for moderators to manage the available prefixes for their own forum, it seems it's only an option in the ACP now? I like it to be part of the forumtools so both admin and moderators can manage it. Can it become part of this mod?

Thanks a lot
