I've got the exact same situation and need. I've read of some other complicated way to do this but this method looks much easier.
The only problem is I'm an n00b and the whole community seems to assume we know what the heck is being talked about.
Ok, I know what my forum ID's and I've got this part: "search.php?do=getnew&exclude=x,y" but would someone mind clarifying where this statement is used? Is a mySQL query? Is it in a template somewhere?
I have enabled my admin account to run queries (if that's what this is) and tried it one time but got an error that the prefix was wrong. I didn't assign a prefix when I installed so I'm not sure where I'm at?
I've come a long way in the last two weeks but obviously, the learning is on going.
Thanks!
