Miscellaneous Hacks - Hide Quoting of Ignored Members

2) Rebuild post cache (Maintenance -> Update Counters -> Rebuild Post Cache).

Uninstalling:
----------------------------
1) Uninstall the product from the Product Manager in the AdminCP.

2) Rebuild post cache (Maintenance -> Update Counters -> Rebuild Post Cache).

Notes:
----------------------------
1) Beta, has been tried out on version 4.1.5 but not extensively tested.

History:

0.91 (Sep 03, 2011) - Fixed issue with including usernames in SQL
0.90 (Aug 08, 2011) - Initial Release

If you rebuild the post cache it should solve that problem. I know I mentioned that you have to do it when uninstalling, but maybe I didn't realize that it has to be done when disabling. TBH I haven't looked at the code in a while.

In the next version I think I'm going to make it clear the post cache automatically when needed. The next version should be coming soon, I apologize to those who have been waiting for new features.

I appreciate your patience, but yeah, sorry, I haven't been doing any real vb programming in a while. I even tried to talk a couple other people into doing this for me, but no luck. I'll take another look at it, if it's not too difficult I might be able to wedge something in there

• hide the entire thread if the person started it is in your ignore list (there is one for 3.8, i can find the link if you think it will help
  
• hide the post and posts that quote the person who is in your ignore list

thank you so much.

I apologize to Raul7 and anyone else who's been waiting patiently for this, but I won't be able to add these features any time soon. And if I ever do, it will probably be a separate mod since the existing code in this mod to hide quotes doesn't help much toward those features.

Thanks alot for looking into this anyways, I do appreciate the time you and rest of developers put into all these mods.

Not working right on 4.1.12, for some reason treats everyone like they are on my ignore list but also shows their quote.

Thanks, I'll take a look at it.

I'd also be very interested in such a mod as it has been requested by several of my members. I have actually recently added a tracker regarding the issue, you can see it at: http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-15465

Please vote if you also need such a change to be made

Is there a similar mod for 3.8 that hides quotes by ignored users? I can't find one.

I wish the ignore features weren't so easily overridden. I've recently installed a forced ignore mod onto my board but haven't yet found a way to disable the ability to View Post, or in the case of this mod View Quote. So, it doesn't actually stop the posters from reading each others posts, just makes it a nuisance to do so.
