Lack of interest Prefix in Thread View

[Andrej]

Shouldn't this be click-able? So you could search for threads using that prefix?

It's clickable in the thread list view.

I'm not sure it needs to also be clickable in the thread view, or even that it's appropriate.

Oh, didn't notice that until your post.

 

[Mark.B]

It's NOT clickable in the "New Threads" view though, which is a tad inconsistent IMO.

 

[Paul B]

If you mean What's New, then that is forum agnostic, hence why they can't be clicked.

Oh I see. So clicking them only brings up results from that forum? I understand now.

 

[ankurs]

Should also be click-able in search results.

Prefix should be click-able in "What´s New".

[erich37]

so what?

 

[Forsaken]

so what?

Meaning that the way What's New is implemented makes it impossible to make the prefix clickable.

I think the code that would need to be changed is the Prefix Code.

Like I said, I think they should be clickable for when the User wants to find topics about samething, for another words, with same prefix.

Prefixes are meant to give a status to a thread WITHIN a forum.
They aren't meant to be thread Tags.
Even though alot of people want it that way.

They work better that way.

I'm already thinking on a huge plan for use the Prefixes for make my users be more time and explore more the forum, with more topic views, replies, etc...

So just have 1 forum with prefixes then.

You really are expecting the prefix system to replicate tags, and they're not intended for that.

But could probably function as a mini-tags system ... which alot of people want ... with relatively little tweaking ? Maybe by an Addon ?

Well what I saw in the Video Kier made, what I thinked do with prefixes it's possible.
About that Tags it's something Interesting, something that could replace the search system, we can search by tags, it's more fun and easy to find the kind of content we want. But that's something I never saw in a forum, only in social networks.
