    Default How to Ignore Threads and other options

    Since there has been an interest by some users to be able to ignore certain forums, i have installed a new feature that will allow you to not see the forums you do not wish to see.

    to activate this feature go to the user cp dropdown menu located on the second navigation bar from the top.

    Select the edit options feature

    at the bottom you will see Exclude Forums from "Get New Posts"

    select the forums you do not wish to see. use the CTRL key to select multiple forums

    select the save settings and you will not have to view the forums/threads that do not interest you.


    also for those wishing to streamline things and do away with
    Avatars / Images / and Signature lines

    again go to the edit options link in the User Cp

    and find the section Thread display options

    uncheck the
    show signatures
    show avatars
    show images

    save and you are good to go..



    if anyone needs further assistance or is not clear on something feel free to send me a PM and i will do my best to explain it to you in simpler terms

    cheers

    Sid

    First of all, let me say thanks for adding this feature!

    There seem to be a few forums missing from the list though (I noticed 3 from the Soap Box).

    yes a few forums were missed in the initial implementation

    they will be added within the day..

    the announcement forum will however be a non ignorable one.

    Thank you for the hard work I'm sure you had to do to make these changes. I really liked the flashing red notification signal.

    Thank you again!

    Sid!

    Is this feature still available? I have way too many posts to read everyday, and would like to block out the forums that don't interest me. Thanks!

    I love being able to double click to mark forums as read but I can't any more.

    Though this seems easier if it is still available.

    In the black bar under the header, click forum actions, click mark forums read. I believe it's only from the index page, though.

    I don't know about ignoring, but if you truly want to miss out on all the fun every forum has to offer, then here's how to mark a forum as read..

    First click on a forum (like "Home Theater" or "Pachinko Cabinets")..Once in the forum, right above where the posts/stickys are there is a red bar and on the left it should look like this..

    Click on "Forum Tools" and then on "Mark This Forum Read" and thats how its done!!

    Thanks MrGneiss

    I like being able to mark forums as read and hated how I couldn't double click them any longer. it takes more time to do it this way but at least it gets it done.
