Ignoring a Thread
« on: September 04, 2011, 10:55:43 am »
I feel like this should pretty straightforward, but I can't figure it out. :( How do I ignore a single thread?

I seem to recall hearing/reading that it's not possible with this software. An entire board, or a single member--but not a single thread.

And my smartass answer is, "Pretend it's not there." :-)

Karen right. There is no way to ignore a thread with this software. vBulletin 4 allows you to ignore all posts from a member. There is a mod that allows you to ignore boards (at least for "New posts" purposes although the board does not actually disappear from the list of forums) which we have installed. Ignore Thread simply does not exist -- it has been requested as a mod for ages, but was only successfully made for a very old and no longer supported version of vBulletin.

Ah well, at least I know not to search for something that isn't there. I'll just take Karen's advice then. Thanks!

While we're on the subject, is it possible to ignore messages from groups you don't belong to? When I hit "new group messages" It shows messages from groups I haven't joined.

No, there isn't. What I do instead is subscribe to the groups, and then I can see if there are any new updates from my settings; you can also just scroll down to the bottom of the forum and check, since it only displays groups you belong to there.
