Hi,

I did not found any existing thread (yet): Is it possible to define topic prefixes per category?  
Like: A dropdown just before the title input?

Thanks 🙂

No that is not possible.

What we recommend is using tags, and then you can style those tags to appear above or before the topic title with CSS.
