Expiring Prefixes
New in Prefix Essentials 2.3 is some new, powerful functionality - expiring prefixes.Prefixes can be set to expire automatically or manually by the user and on expiry, several actions can be applied to the thread.
When to expire
On a per-prefix basis, prefixes can be set to expire- At the user’s discretion, on specific date and time, entered when creating/editing the thread with the selected prefix
- Or after an admin set number of minutes since
- The thread was created or
- The last post was made (including the first post)
- Or when the user presses a custom prefix action button (Deal Agreed in the screenshot below)
Forum View - Prefix filter
- At the top of the thread list, it shows the prefixes used by threads. Clicking each prefix applies the filter to only show threads with that prefix.
- Shows prefix counts.
- Respects thread visibility.
- Respects user prefix ignoring.
- Makes it more convenient to filter the threads by prefix (still available via the “Filters” menu)
- This can be toggled on or off with an admin option.
