Ignore Thread

This hack adds an "Ignore Thread" option to the thread tools menu and generates a list of threads you have ignored in your UserCP. This code was part of a larger customization job we paid to have written for us, and I did the best I could to cull out this single component for release here.

Yes, I did make sure the author was cool with me releasing the code before we paid for it, and he said we could do whatever we want with it. I'd give him credit here but I'm not sure he wants anyone to know lest they bug him for support. :)

IMPORTANT: I am new to php and did not write this hack, so don't expect much help if you have problems.

The hack consists of:

1 db modification
3 new phrases
3 new templates
3 templates to edit
7 files to edit

I particularly hope that you expert coders will have a look and make sure I didn't leave anything out or keep anything superfluous in, and/or suggest any possible ways to improve it or make it work with newer vB versions. I have tested it with a clean 3.0.1 install and had no issues.

Good luck!

The only way to know is to try. :)

I've only tested it on 3.0.1, but I don't know of any reason why it wouldn't work on 3.0.0. Just make sure you have good backups.

Thanks Tom! It's working in 3.0.0 for me like a charm!

One thing my users noted...

Good job on the ignore thread feature -- however, it doesn't work when you do a "new posts" search -- I put a few of the political threads on iggy & they're still coming up when I pull up new threads...But when I go to the forum, they're not there...

Good catch, TJ. :) See, the problem is that I have no way of knowing what templates and files were modified (and how) without doing a side-by-side compare. So everytime an issue pops up that's what I have to do. Okay, this seems to fix it (I'll update the text file in the OP next):

open /forum/search.php

find the first instance of:

PHP Code:


		
			
AND ", $postQueryLogic) . "

add, after:

PHP Code:


		
			
" . iif($bbuserinfo['ignoredthreads'], "AND post.threadid NOT IN($bbuserinfo[ignoredthreads])") . "

find:

PHP Code:


		
			
ORDER BY lastpost DESC

add, before:

PHP Code:


		
			
" . iif($bbuserinfo['ignoredthreads'], "AND threadid NOT IN($bbuserinfo[ignoredthreads])") . "

Don't suppose there's any such thing as an "ignore forum" option? We have a chit-chat forum and some of our users *hate* it, when they hit New Posts they can see a dozen OT posts. This hack would be useful if there was only the occasional one but I don't think it'll be enough :(
