That is the only field that you added in the hack. This is where you place the forums numbers, so that field is quickly filled up (1 2 300 etc...) with characters, so making that field 250 will give you more space.

ALTER TABLE `user` CHANGE `excludeforumids` `excludeforumids` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL

Dark Visor thank:)

Anyone know if this worked on 3.5?

My users LOVE this hack and it is a must have for my site. :)

I will not upgrade to 3.5 without it. :D

It will probably NOT work on 3.5.
However, if 3.5 will be successful and many users will upgrade, I might write a remake of this hack...

When i click on the button to save, nothing happens.
Am i missing something ?

.

What do you mean - nothing happens? Can you be more specific?

It should just refresh the page, while updating your profile. If you then go back to homepage, you will not see the forums you hid..

Hi this hack is a real life saver! I have installed it but one main problem. Have a look:

http://www.apug.org/forums/

As you can see i have 3 languages, and each language forum contains all of the forums for that language -so basically most of my forums are subforums. How hard would it be to modify this hack so that I can use it with subforums? I am willing to pay for your services and need it as soon as possible, can you PM me? THANKS!

I'll look into it..

VERSION 1.06!!!

[+] Now you can also enter visibility edit mode in subforums. That is useful when there are many forum levels and thus not all of them are accessible from forumhome.
[+] Edit mode is now saved into cookie, so until you either exit from that mode or close your browser, your state will be saved between pages :)

HOW TO UPDATE:
1. Download 1.06 package.
2. Redo changes for index.php
3. Do new changes involving forumdisplay.php (the file was not used in prev. version)
4. Redo all template changes using the new manual
5. Done.
