Hello,

I am looking for a way to set the "Prefix ID" for multiple "Titles" at the same time.

Reason: Few forums use many prefixes. That's why I have configured many titles. Other forums require none which is no problem since I will let the prefixes unconfigured for them. There are some sites only using few prefixes so I map all my titles to a small amount of Prefix IDs to have those properly assigned where they are mandatory.

Do I really have to go through ALL my tags just to configure the 4 prefixes one specific forum uses? I tried marking several rows and enter the Prefix ID, no luck. Even right-click and "Replace" will only replace in the current row - it matches ^$ correctly so I could even assign a prefix ID to all empty fields if it only would support multi-row-editing :-)

Is there a way to accomplish this task I haven't found yet?

Hi,

will add right click context option to set prefix ID for all selected prefixes (rows).

By the way, you could just assign the "Default" prefix ID to "Other" prefix.

When posting, if selected prefix is not set for that forum, the program will try to use the "Other" prefix.

The "Other" prefix is one of the build-in prefixes (should be enabled if you disabled it in "CONFIG" -> "Prefixes" -> "Build-in").

Thank you very much - again.

1. Your advice will help me with some of my today's work
2. The planned change will really make prefixes a charm. And no I won't expect it too soon, just in case you might want to remark on that :-) Just take your time, as always.

2.41:
* Added right click options for prefixes table to change multiple items at once: "Set prefix ID", "Set icon ID", "Clear".
