Add text before or after every line in a list, code snippet, CSV column, or content block without editing each line manually.

Quick answer

Paste your list, enter the prefix text, suffix text, or both, choose whether empty lines should be skipped, then generate the updated output.

Why this saves time

Adding the same text to many lines is boring work, and boring work is where mistakes happen. If you have 100 URLs and need to add quotation marks, or 50 product codes that need a fixed prefix, doing it manually is slow and risky.
A prefix/suffix tool applies the same change to every line at once. It keeps your list order intact and gives you a clean output that you can copy into a spreadsheet, code file, CMS field, or email.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Paste your lines into the input box.
  2. Enter the prefix you want before each line.
  3. Enter the suffix you want after each line.
  4. Choose whether empty lines should be ignored.
  5. Generate the output and review a few lines before copying.

Example 1: Add quotes around lines

Input:
apple
banana
orange
Prefix: "   Suffix: "
Output:
"apple"
"banana"
"orange"

Example 2: Add a URL path prefix

Input:
pricing
contact
about
Prefix: https://example.com/
Output:
https://example.com/pricing
https://example.com/contact
https://example.com/about

Common mistakes

  • Adding spaces accidentally in the prefix or suffix field. Check if you want a space or not.
  • Forgetting to skip empty lines, which can create empty quoted values.
  • Adding a comma after every line when the last line should not have one. Review before using in code.
  • Using smart quotes copied from rich text editors when plain quotes are required.

Practical tip

For code arrays, add the comma as a suffix first, then remove the final comma manually if your language requires it. This is usually faster than editing every line one by one.

Use Add Prefix / Suffix to Lines for lists, CSV values, URLs, SKU codes, keywords, redirects, route paths, and repeated code snippets.

Common questions

Can I add both prefix and suffix at the same time?

Yes. Enter both values and the tool will wrap or extend each line in one run.

Can I skip blank lines?

Yes. Use the skip empty lines option when you do not want blank rows in the output.

Is this useful for CSV work?

Yes. You can quickly add quotes, commas, IDs, category prefixes, or URL parts to rows before importing data.

Can I use it for code snippets?

Yes, especially for arrays, route lists, enum values, and repeated markup.
