It works. You need to configure it.

Also, for the list to appear, you need to edit and save any one of your forums with the forum manager.

just a suggestion -- it would be great if some sort of title like "New Posts Filter" was added, so users know what it is. It just comes up in the "miscellaneous options" box and says "to select multiple forums...etc." A user coming across this wouldn't have any idea what it is.

Has anyone done a mod they'd care to share that adds a title and some more detailed instructions?

ETA: I just noticed my install doesn't match the screenshot. The tile "forums to exclude from view" and the first paragraph below it are missing. Any idea how to fix this?

:( Not working on my board.
I have a feeling that a current mod "Opt Out of New Posts from select forums" which is placed right beneath it is conflicting with it.

They both show up in my Edit Options; but when this mod is enabled, both mod's selection lists don't show my forum list.

When the other one is disabled & this one enabled, this mod still doesn't show the Forum List (even after running the SQL Script).

BUT, If I disable this one & leave the other enabled, they both show full forum list of selections.

Wierd.
Any possible recommendations?
I uninstalled it for now but will reinstall if I can get a working solution to my issue.

This mod is very useful & would work wonders for my users!

Oops I posted this in the 3.5 thread by mistake... :o

Great work Psionic Vision :)

Is it possible you could create a very slight variation of this hack so I could use a url to exclude certain forums form the forum index? Eg:

http://vbulletin.com/forum/index.php?&exclude=10,28,12

Which would then exclude forums 10, 28, and 12 from showing on the forum home/index page.

That would be a HUGE help, please please please consider it :)

Edit: Meant to say so it's not permanent, just that those forum IDs will not show when that particular url/link is followed. So if someone goes back to the forum home via the normal http://vbulletin.com/forum/index.php they will all show.

okay. before i ran the query, i was going to manually exclude them all.. but opted not to do that since i have over 100 forums...
when i ran the script, i went to check to see if it worked... but it only showed the forums i manually selected...

what i had to do, was reverse the exclusion and uninstall the hack then reinstall the hack and rerun the query... and it works perfect..

installed!!!

Excellent, installed. This is a must have for any political site lol.

I wanted to add this to my forumhome next to the forums they have an option to exclude to make it a little more obvious. Here's a simple solution for this for anyone who's interested in this. What it will do is take them right to the Edit Options page and drill to the bottom.

In the modifyoptions template find:

Code:

        <div style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px">

                <input type="submit" class="button" value="$vbphrase[save_changes]" accesskey="s" />

Add this just above

Code:

<a name="jump" id="jump"></a>

Now we add the anchored link to the Description field under Forum Manager > Edit Forum

Code:

http://www.yourforum.com/profile.php?do=editoptions#jump

you will need to change the path your forum.

I have one version of Selective Forum Filter, by Psionic Vision, installed. The oddity is that the version shown on the Manage Products menu is 1.1.0, where this latest version is 1.0.7.

Am I missing something?

You will need to add it as html to Forums & Moderators > Forum Manager > choose forum and add something like this (below) to "Description"

Code:

<a href="http://www.yoursite.com/forum/profile.php?do=editoptions#jump">

[Hide this Forum]</a>

What's the difference in this mod and this one?

Also will this one be upgraded to 3.7?

I have tested this on 3.7 and it works perfectly. Thank you!

Roxie -- you got it to work? I and others have had it suddenly stop working and no one seems to know what happened or how to fix it.

excuse me, but i must be blind. I am trying to figure out where is that list that you xan exclude forums from search. I have literally searched everywhere and I can't find where i can exclude forums from search.
I ran the sql command, I opened and saved a forum from the Forum Management (.../admincp/forum.php?do=modify) and i can't see anything. Any guidance would be appreciated.
My vb version is 3.6.8 Patch Level 2. Thanks in advance.

If you have vbseo installed, add option.php to the vbseocp.php page in the exclude page options.

This will then populate the forums into the exclude box.

Is there a way to enable this only for certain usergroups? I want to only enable this for my premium level members.

Wow, I was just looking around for that, it'd be really nice to have an option of which usergroups were allowed to use it!

Doesn't work on 3.7, comes up with a missing security token or something (I forget the error)

That should be easy to fix... Check the topic where Kier explains about the security token.

Deimos

05-03-2008 01:25 AM

Hmm, you sure it was Kier? I did a search on his posts for "Token" but couldn't find anything.

cannot get this to work on 3.68 patch 2 - tried to install it twice, no editing options appear in usercp>edit options

I'm getting an error when trying to run the query.

This is the query that I'm running as I don't have a prefix set...

Code:

UPDATE SET excludable = 1

...and this is the error I'm getting...

Code:

An error occurred while attempting to execute your query. The following information was returned.

error number: 1064

error desc: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'SET excludable = 1' at line 1

I'd appreciate anyones input.

The box is visible in 'Edit Options' but no forums are visible to select. I have manually saved a forum in Forum Manager so I suspect it's down to the query failing.

Running 3.7.0.

Thanks :)

Deimos

05-07-2008 10:28 AM

Ya need to run

Code:

UPDATE forum SET excludable = 1
