uploading the XML file, THEN running the SQL Query.

I would suggest adding this to the instructions. I had to sit here and read through all the posts in this thread until I found your suggestion. Then it worked perfect! :D

Very nice mod. Thanks!

It occurs to me that it would be nice if there were a list of currently filtered forums for the user to review. If it has been a while since they filtered forums, they may have forgotten which are ignored. Anyway to include an indicator next to each forum in the list in the window where you pick which to filter?

Also, anyway to reset the exclusions on individual forums without resetting all of them at once? It seems kind of inconvenient that if you want to remove one forum, you have to remove all and then re-exclude all the ones you still want.

I think you haven't followed the installation instructions properly. Because the plugin already allows you to see which forums are excluded (they are selected), and it is already possible to re-enable one specific forum by deselecting it (hold CTRL).

Man... you would think that would have been brutally obvious... :o

Unfortunately, I am the master at missing the brutally obvious :p

Thank you for setting me straight :up:

I have NO table prefix. So how would I run that Query?

what do u mean by
If you have no table prefix (empty value for $config['Database']['tableprefix']) then please just remove PFX from the query.

Can this be modified to be able to turn this on and off globally?
Can it be modified to allow me to select certain usergroups that can and cannot use it?

BTW, instead of using the "reputation.gif" file to represent the ignore thread option, I modified the code to look for "ignore.gif" and then used this image. Feel free to use it yourself.

I think this may be exactly what I've been looking for, thanks!

Yes. Anything is possible. Sorry, though, I am not going to provide exact instructions. If you do not want to wait for me to *maybe* implement it, please feel free to ask someone in the modifications forum to help you to modify this hack.

What does "ignore thread" have to do with this hack?

Oops. The "Ignore" image should have went to the other thread.
