The foe function

Post by cheb »

It only hides posts by foed members, can it be tweaked to hide threads started by them too please?

An 'Ignore this thread' function would be a great addition if that's possible.

Dont see any options or config at all for it in the control panel. There may be an extension but, well, I'd rather not.

If I'm honest, I thought we were giving everyone a clean slate?

Must admit that a thread ignore would have been a handy thing on TRC cos there were some people who could make decent posts on most subjects then blindingly numb posts on one particular thread that wouldn't fucking flush. Just kept bobbing back upto the surface like a turd with a fart in it.

Oh and by the way, can someone quote me so cheb can see this? :lol:

If enough people want it, I'll do some research.

Quoted.

It's just one poster, and it may be a failing on my part to see them like this, but some people just won't change.

If it's not instantly simple then don't spend any time on it.

Time is not something I'm short of currently. It does mean picking up a laptop instead of a phone though.

I think I have a similar failing... in this particular case.

This seems to be the closest i can find that's been developed but it's not been fully tested or submitted for approval, so i'm afraid at the moment guys, it's a no from me.

I will check at times, but unless the code is written, we're kinda stuck with what we have.
