Prefix/suffixes

Zaphod Beebledoc · April 9th, 2014, 11:12 AM

When inputting a prefix/suffix for the first time, if the Topic already exists, and you double click the name to open it for editing, you then have click in the prefix/suffix box to enter something. If you are entering several prefix/suffixes this can get time consuming.

Is there another option/alternative?

Unfortunately, there's no shorter method available at the moment. And there's no easy and obvious (to the user) way to add one that's leaping to mind for me.

Ok, thanks for replying.

Maybe an option is that when the database determines you use the same name for a topic it gives the option to add a prefix/suffix immediately.

Now the question is: the name "<name topic>" is in use by another topic in this category. Use it anyway?
Answer options yes or no.
A third option would be to add the option to add a prefix/suffix. So the options would be:
Add suffix/prefix
Use as is.
Do not use.

NOW I understand this pre-/suffix idea.

I like Cornelius' suggestion.
