{$thread['prefix']} will take the prefix ID of the thread you're viewing
{$thread['threadprefix']} will display the prefix "name" of the thread you're viewing
{$similar_thread['prefix']} will take the prefix ID of the thread in the similar thread row
{$similar_thread['threadprefix']} will display the prefix "name" of the thread in the similar thread row

In the last code box you posted here, you're mixing the viewing thread's ID with the similar thread's name (so the link may be incorrect if the two are different).

Hi Zinga - what I am trying to say - in response to the post from RateU

HTML Code

<a href="{$forumurl_q}filterxt_prefix={$similar_thread['prefix']}">{$similar_thread['threadprefix']}</a>

Is no, I did not mean to say something else - the snippet I posted worked - so does RateU's. Thats it. I have no idea if it is significant that they both work.

Code:

<td class="{$trow}"><a href="{$forumurl_q}filterxt_prefix={$thread['prefix']}">{$similar_thread['threadprefix']}</a>

What do I mean by worked? That the prefix shows up (as in pic) and if I click on that prefix while viewing the show thread it shows me all posts in that forum with that prefix.
