Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
WebbyB Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Hi, I think it's nice to have the "Tagging & Prefixes" under one roof, but where it falls is that you may only want certain prefix's available... for example: Classifieds Forum - Only Available Prefixes - "For Sale", "For Rent", "Looking For" etc etc - Hyperphetically speaking I may only want these, I would not want people to be able to start a forum with "Apple", "Gaddafi" or "Pear" etc etc - not good...and irrelevant.. Can I suggest Prefixes have some control/definible per Forum/category basis please? Cheers,
Stars25 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 I'm not sure if it is changeable per category, but the "Closed Mode" allows you to set predefined prefixes.
Management Matt Posted March 21, 2011 Management Posted March 21, 2011 Tags and thus prefixes are definable on a per forum basis. This is mentioned in the blog entry. :)
Miss Moiraine Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Going with the marketplace model, what if you want predefined prefixes (want to buy, for sell, etc) but let users tag their post as they see fit?
chilihead Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Will tags and prefixes be added to the vB converter? I care more about prefixes though. Thanks!
Ryan Ashbrook Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Will tags and prefixes be added to the vB converter? I care more about prefixes though. Thanks! We will look into that when the time comes to update the converters for 3.2. :)
chilihead Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Please make sure prefixes can be set to mandatory per forum. Examples for use would be similar to the OP.For Sale Wanted In a sales forum like this, I would need to enforce the pre-defined prefixes. Prefix sets would be nice also, so I could just check a box to use this set in another forum. Thanks
Rikki Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Yes, you can require a tag/prefix to be used on new topics if you wish.
dr. Jekyll Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Some questions:if some one forget to add a mandatory prefix before open a discussion, Will he receive some sort of pop-up to remember to choice a prefix before to open a new discussions?;is it possible to have mandatory prefix to open a discussion and mandatory tags to replay to that discussion;is it possible to add more prefixes to one single forum? For example if i have a forum about football I could be interested to have one prefix for each football team;can the prefix be also added to a tag cloud? For example if I use Manchester United as prefix would be nice if "Manchester united" became also a "tag" in a classic tag cloud windows;is it possible to add mass prefix to existing discussion inside an existing forum? For example, if I would like to merge two forum ("Windows Vista" and "Windows Seven") would be nice to add "Windows Vista" prefix to all the discussion inside the Vista forum (the same for the discussions inside the Seven forum) and then merge the two forum in one new forum where i can see the original discussions some marked as Vista and some as Seven;What happen if I move a discussion from one forum to another? Will still keep the original prefix also if wasn't made for the new forum?;
.Nuno. Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Going with the marketplace model, what if you want predefined prefixes (want to buy, for sell, etc) but let users tag their post as they see fit? Something I would like to know too :)
digifredje Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Yes, you can require a tag/prefix to be used on new topics if you wish. How?
