I am trying to figure out how to keep the search.php from showing posts from a specified username or userid in the 'New Posts' area.
We are using the articlebot and if you don't log in for a long period of time, there are 1000's of posts from the NewsBots. What I need is something so I can assign a group or certain usernames or userid's from being shown when someone goes to see the 'New Posts'. I sat here for about 5 hours last night trying to figure it out but came up empty handed. If anyone knows how I can do this, or may already have a hack that does this, please contact me via email or reply here. Thanks guys. |

Assuming that your newsbot creates new threads:
** UNTESTED ** In search.php FIND PHP Code:

if your bot is posting in a forum that is dedicated to news / rss feeds your could try the forum Exclude hack.
[vB 3.0.3] - Use exclude in search process related query string |

Thanks guys. Sorry it took me so long to reply. Really helped out. Thanks again.
I had to change this line from AND thread.postuserid = 1234 to AND thread.postuserid != '1234' works now. New question. Now that I have that solved. How do I get the 'Number of New Posts' on the Forum Home page to not count that userid as well when it counts the new posts. For instance, if I limit a user from the search.php it still counts those posts as new posts on the forum home. |

OK, new question.
I eliminated the bots posts from showing up on the search page, but now need to eliminate their posts from being counted on the forum home page. For example, their posts arent showing up on the search page, but their posts are still counted here. Your Info: User: romeshomey New Posts: 29 New Threads: 27 Private Messages: 0 Unread, Total 20. How can I eliminate this? |
