    Thread prefix

    In the Ubuntu forums, they have thread prefixes. Any chance we could have those here in CodeGuru forums?

    They would come in especially handy in the scripting forums. It would be great to have people select PHP, PERL, ASP.NET, Python, BASH, etc. to go with the title.

    Sweet. Any chance of knowing if this going into a "to do" queue? Or will this be a quick addition?

    Re: Thread prefix

    Sorry to be such a hassle...could the categories be the following? I forgot that we have dedicated ASP.NET and Python forums already.

    • PHP
    • Perl
    • ASP (Classic)
    • BASH
    • Other


    EDIT: And is it required? If not, can it be?

    Re: Thread prefix

    I just did a forum search (advanced search) a few hours ago and noticed that there is a new thread prefix option. Amazing how quick that change was implemented!
    I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy sitting next to me.

    This is a snakeskin jacket! And for me it's a symbol of my individuality, and my belief... in personal freedom.

    Re: Thread prefix

    Quite cool, I have to admit, especially that the prefixes are per sub-forum. Maybe it will make sense to add prefixes to other forums. We'll have to think about it.

    Client-side forum options, maybe?

    • JavaScript
    • X/HTML or CSS
    • XML
    • VBScript
    • ActionScript
    • Other

    Re: Thread prefix

    Sorry to bump this thread...but, can you please implement this for the client-side as well?

    Can you please make them required in both client-side and server-side? I've noticed that a good number don't even bother. It then defeats the purpose of having it.

    Re: Thread prefix

    I added the client-side prefixes. Take a look. I'm not sure about making them required.....

    Re: Thread prefix

    Perfect. Thanks a lot!

    I've just noticed that people in the server-side forum haven't really been using them. If they were required, then threads would be better organized.

    EDIT: Oh...and can you add Other to the server-side options?
