@Daniel Hood Would the above quoted feature be something you can add to this addon? I am looking to buy both "Tag Essentials" and "Prefix Essentials" and the ability to prevent certain "prefixes" from appearing in the tag pages would become very important. Appreciate your frank response.Option to stop the prefix being shown in tag pages possible?
I will have lot of tags that are prefixes too, hence the query.
Can you clarify this request, please? What exactly do you want?I second (third?) that request to have the box not appear in forums that have to pre-fix tags. It would also be nice if it would use the display order from Applications > Thread Prefixes in the ACP to put the tags in a specific order.
So when creating a thread with a specific prefix, if there is a tag for that prefix, you don't want that tag auto suggested. Is that what you are asking for?@Daniel Hood Would the above quoted feature be something you can add to this addon?

Prefixes for "ease of use" and tags for "search engines". That's the idea. So, many threads would have the prefix and tag set to same name and it would look silly(maybe not?) to have all threads within a particular tag to also have the prefix with same name. Hope I made sense...
The Prefix filtering is not remembered, so you have to apply it each time you return to the thread list. This is standard Xenforo functionality and not part of the functionality of this addon. I'm guessing that you want to 'remember' the prefix filter. Is that correct?Question:
Within this forum on AV https://www.avforums.com/forums/which-tv-should-i-buy.367/
Let's use the option "Question." The first thread there is Which TV Should I Go For
When I open that thread, the option to filter everything but questions disappears. If I go back it'll be there. If I post?
What if the only thing I wanted to read and talk about there was questions? Would I have to "filter" after every response I make or every thread I start?
If there are no prefixes set up for a forum, the filter box doesn't appear. So you're asking about scenarios when thre can be prefixed threads, but aren't, so the prefix buttons won't do anything.If a forum doesn't have any prefixes available for it, can the empty "Filter Based on Prefix" box be removed from atop the forum?

I've taken over this add-on from @Daniel Hood (I originally commissioned it), and it's now available on my site, M2N, for purchase and download. All future versions will be there as well.
If you have a current license for this add-on, you can register it there (instructions are available...
You uncheck the tickbox Display prefix group above the node list for filtering for all the prefix groups. I have edited the resource description to add screen shots to show how you do this.This add-on looks great & we're just starting to enjoy it.
In the screenshot below there's a new drop-down this addon throws on the top of the forums listing, this shoves everything down quite a bit & is not visually pleasing (the ability to filter by prefix from here isn't needed either). How can I remove this feature & reclaim this space?
There are usergroup permissions to create and reply to threads with specific prefixes. I imagine it wouldn't be a huge job to add a view permission there.Does this (or any) add-on provide the ability to restrict who can read Topics with certain Prefixes?
It seems like the more a forum is segmented into boards, the more disjointed discussions become. I'd like to have fewer boards, but if I use a certain prefix, I'd like to able to control who can read it and who can't based on User Groups or role.
If I get a quote to do the work, would you consider funding it?Are you saying that you would add them, or that I should dig in and add them? I'm still not comfortable with Xen's code yet. I do like the ability to toggle who can reply to them, but it seems like a duplicate of locking a topic, still a good feature.
