Prefixes v5 - Closed Lists and Forced Use

Featured Replies

  • Community Expert

Hi all,

I would like to have a closed list of prefixes for one forum, and force members to choose a prefix. It appears that none of this is possible in v5 - is this correct?

Thanks.

Prefixes don't exist in Invision. Invision uses tags, which you cannot force on members to use. You would need a custom application to do so.

'Prefixes' do exist - there are ACP options - but it appears that they are just a special type of tag and there is no granularity. Unless I am missing something, prefixes seem next to useless, at least for me.

Apologies, I did phrase that incorrectly. Yes, but you cannot force them on members. They are slightly different compared to how other software providers implement them. Invision focuses on the visibility page that comes with tags when clicking a tag.
