ignore thread option

[kamocat]

Hi
Occasionally I'll find a thread in a forum which I generally participate, but discussing a prospect I don't really care about.

Is there an option to ignore a thread, so it does not appear to have new posts?

Select the threads you don't want notifications from and move them out of your subscription folder or delete them outright.

User CP > Subscribed Threads > List Subscriptions

Sure, that works for not receiving email updates.

I meant this to make it easier to find new threads, not simply stay current with threads I've already read.

One effect of this is I would be able to look at the Technical Forums (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=50) and tell if there's any NEW threads in each forum, or if the new posts are just threads I've decided to stop watching.

For what you are asking about, would probably require a vBulletin plug-in to be installed.

Is this a user-side plugin? How would I go about installing it?

Found relevant vBulletin 3.6 mod:

I believe there is a Greasemonkey script that can do this if you use Firefox. I'll have to dig around when I get home to see if I can find it.

Here's a greasemonkey one for vBulletin 4:

Do you think this would work on vBulletin 3?

Does that vBulletin mod have to be installed for the whole site, or can it be installed individually by a user?

I'm not sure what version this forum uses.

3.6.4. It's shown at the very bottom of each page

Yeah, I realized that right after I posted.

I'm also guessing that the mod has to be installed by the site admin.

Yes it does. Most stuff written for VB4 won't work on VB3.
