Show Thread Enhancements - Add Ignore User To Postbit Dropdown

Please click Mark as Installed if you are using this hack.


What Does This Hack Do?[hr]hr[/hr]
This is an update to my 3.7.x version of this hack.

A simple hack that will display an option to ignore a user in the postbit (or postbit legacy) dropdown menu (see screenshots for a visual example).

This will not show up in your own posts, as you would not really want to try ignoring yourself.

This hack is fully phrased.

Thanks, but it is not better to bring the user back to his thread, after adding the user to his ignore list?

Hi Stoebi,

It already redirects back to the thread that the user was viewing when ignoring a user.

Well, that is what it does for me, on a test forum and a live forum.

Mosh.

Anyway to add an option of usernames that cant be ignored? Such as mods and admins?

Edit - Ignore that! I see you cany ignore anyway!

Good job, thank you. Quick question, I want to change the order (I don't want this option at the bottom of the list because it is under vbExperience -- I want to move it to top of vbExperience). I can't figure out what template to edit to change the order, some help?

In the AdminCP, click Plugins & Products -> Plugin Manager. Edit the Add Ignore User To Postbit Dropdown (2) Plugin and change the Execution Order to a number lower than the corresponding vbExperience plugin. Then click Save. And that should do it.

Perfection. vbExperience_postbit was ranked #1, so I moved it to #2 and moved the ignore user to #1. Tested, works perfectly.
