Show Thread Enhancements - Show Ignore User in Postbit

This feature was the #1 thing requested by my users when I started the site. It is a really simple edit.

Open your postbit_legacy and add the following code.

Under

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts}

Put

<br />
<a href="profile.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=addlist&amp;userlist=ignore&amp;u={vb:raw post.userid}"><b>Ignore User</b></a>

That's it!

For those of us using postbit (not postbit_legacy).

Install code after:

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_userinfo_left}

...also decided to change the font size for text and spacing using this modified code:

<a style="font-size: 6px">&nbsp</a><br />
<a style="font-size: 10px" href="profile.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=addlist&amp;userlist=ignore&amp;u={vb:raw post.userid}-{vb:raw post.username}"><b>Ignore User</b></a>

Example:

Good idea, but surely a better idea to place it in the postbit drop-down menu?

The "postbit drop down menu" you have must be associated with another mod you have added. There is not one by default that I see. There are some drop down menus associated with the thread as a whole at the top but none associated with the postbit or individual posts which is what is required to link the "ignore user" to a specific user.

I run a pretty large forum and we have an anything goes off topic board and you would be surprised on how many users forget about the ignore feature of vbulletin. This puts it out there so when an particular user drives them crazy they remember to place the user on ignore instead of messaging me. Most of my users came from another non vbulletin forum that had this and this is what they really wanted.

Erm, if you click your user-name within the postbit, you'll get a drop-down menu - just like any vanilla vb-forum has been capable of doing for several years now. This is a default feature, not some mystical add-on.

Good point, I was just putting an idea out there

Thanks for that.
