Applying a Specific Prefix to Every Thread on a Forum

I am combining three forums into one. But I wonder if there is a away for me to for me to add a forum-specific prefix onto each each thread in each forum before I merge them? The three forums can operate quite well as one, but it would be useful to be able separate out the three types too.

And, on a related matter - if the space should become too busy for all three areas of discussion - is it possible to separate out threads of a forum via a prefix for moving out the content to another forum?

Any suggestions?

As you might know, you will have to add the prefix in every single topic you have. An easy way to enhance this job would be this resource:

It will allow you to select multiple topics in forum view and apply the prefix to all topics of the page in same time.

Thank you @Adriano Faria That gets me part of the way there. And maybe close enough. Of course, it does nothing for disentanglement if I ever wish to reverse merging the three forums, but I can't have everything.

Last screenshot has a tool to delete prefix/tags from all topics of selected forums:

Hi @Adriano Faria

Is there a way to sort or filter the topics according the tags used? I ask in case I ever wish to divide-up the topics into two or more forums.

Thanks.
