I installed "Showcase" by XenAddons (https://xenaddons.com/) and the Multi Prefix add-on doesn't let me choose prefix for items posting in Showcase. Anyone has experience a similar issue?

Is it possible to make this add-on compatible with others addon that has prefix in its system?

 

[Xon]

I'll investigate, I've noticed this add-on is a bit too aggressive at updating the prefix picker in some cases.

Hi @Xon i can't use Prefixes with other add-ons using prefixes, like AMS or LD2, if i enabled your add-on.

I got not error, but i can't choose any prefix like shown in the attachment.

 

[Xon]

@mcatze I plan to look at that in the next few days, been fairly busy with previous projects.

Nice to see how frequently you incorporate cross compatibilty, Xon. This is working with Dragonbytes eCommerce so products can have multiple prefixes, too?

This fixes the single-prefix compatibility issue. But it wouldn't be hard for @DragonByte Tech (or similar) to create a tiny add-on which extended MultiPrefix to support Dragonbytes eCommerce.

I'm not going to have time to look into it until sometime next year, and even then I haven't had any other expressions of interest.

Just a thought: maybe at some point you can consider an option to add a prefix limit to multiple nodes at once or at least an add-prefix-limit to-all-nodes option, if that's possible? I know you can already do this per node, but for those of us with a lot of nodes it would save quite a bit of time. Thanks

This can be done via SQL;

update xf_forum
set sv_min_prefixes = 0, sv_max_prefixes = 0
where node_id in (1,2,3)

Change the node_id list as required, and set sv_min_prefixes/sv_max_prefixes as required. A value of 0 means no limit.

Well, I guess copying the 176 node ID's from the database node list to a list to run the command would be somewhat quicker. Hopefully I can get rid of quite a few of them with this addon so that I don't have to keep running into this kind of issue. That's the plan, anyway. Thank you

@imno007 you can just remove the "where node_id in..." bits and apply it to every forum.

So just run it as:

update xf_forum
set sv_min_prefixes = 0, sv_max_prefixes = 2

??

update xf_forum
set sv_min_prefixes = 0, sv_max_prefixes = 2

Yup, that will apply a max of 2 prefixes, and a min of 0 to every forum.

I was counting on being able to make prefixes required for certain nodes, in order to do away with some other nodes, but it looks like the "Require users to select a prefix" option is disabled by this addon. Was that strictly necessary to get it to work?

You just need to set sv_min_prefixes to a value > 0, and it will have the effect.

LoL, sorry, I realized that one second after I posted it. I actually thought I had deleted the post, but apparently not. Yeah, just needed to take a break, my brain was fried. Thanks, though.

Is it possible to hide a prefix in a node? I'm applying one default prefix to most nodes so that I can use Prefix Essentials to filter all their threads from the forum list, but I want to keep some of those nodes, at least for now, and that means I have some "redundant" prefixes: prefixes in nodes that just repeat the name of the node.

Also, I don't know if it's possible (if it is I'm not sure why no one has done it yet), but if it is, have you thought about doing a modification that allows for site-wide prefix searches without having to input a username or keyword? Just curious. Thanks.
