status-resolved .TV Forum Change

[dnlucky]

Thanks for your explanation of the Top Domains section, Eric. I hope I didn't miss all of that in the existing documentation about the section, and thus wasted your time.

Now how about giving us back our .tv section?

how about giving us back our .tv section?

The .TV section is still there. The most noticeable difference is the URL:

• https://www.namepros.com/s/forums/cctld-discussion.143/?prefix_id=334

Prefixes serve the same purpose as sub-forums with the added benefit of being able to see all related threads (not just .tv threads) when the prefix is removed:

• With .TV prefix: https://www.namepros.com/s/forums/cctld-discussion.143/?prefix_id=334
  
• No prefix: https://www.namepros.com/s/forums/cctld-discussion.143/

It takes a little getting used to, but it's a far better solution than what existed previously and has already shown a bump in the engagement in .tv threads since the change was made.


Hope that helps,

Got it. Thanks!

P.S. Can you move the thread at https://www.namepros.com/threads/reduced-legacy-premium-renewals.1027964 into the .tv section? That's where I wanted to post it.

I added the ".tv" prefix to your thread for you.

Hope that helps,

For future reference, when you create a .TV ccTLD thread, click the drop-down that says "(No prefix)" to select ".tv" from the list.

If you forget, then once the thread is created, you can select "Options" and then "Edit Thread" to add the prefix.

Perfect. Thanks very much.
