Exclude forums from displaying in New Posts

[Zeitgeist]

I've used this hack in vB2 and was very satisfied with it. But I haven't seen the hack for vB3 so far. Many of my users need this modification because they don't want to see topics in Off-topic for example when they search for new posts since their last visit. Has anybody an idea how I can integrate this hack in vB3?

[Zeitgeist]

No idea??

Hey guys??

What's the link to the original vB2 hack of this?

I think I've found a solution for this problem by using the following code:
(http://www.myforum.com/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=14,15,16)http://www.myforum.com/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=14,15,16 (http://www.myforum.com/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=14,15,16) (,...) (http://www.myforum.com/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=14,15,16)
It seems to be working fine with vB3 :-)

Ah okay cool :)

This is not working for me. Would someone please verify what I'm doing is correct?

I place that code in the navbar template like this:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getnew&exclude=221(,...) accesskey="2">$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]</a></td>

or is the (,...) not meant to be included?

So it's like this?
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getnew&exclude=221 accesskey="2">$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]</a></td>

A space between 221 and accesskey? Or not?

[Gary King]

I don't even know what accesskey is for, but just add a &amp; between 221 and accesskey.

Gary, is it possible to set up a usergroup that would not be affected by this?
