Where is Ignore Nodes now?

[Levo-Lon]

Looks like you have to go into the Forum you want to ignore, then ignore it, not from within a thread. it worked for me on News & Current Affairs, I meant that before when I put PCA

Yes that's easy, just cant select all and save.

Is there not a way of doing a collective ignoring of nodes, like there was previously? You used to be able to just tick boxes and they would all be ignored. I used to ignore a lot and now they’ve all come back into view!

That's what im trying to sort too.

@meta lon but you have the option: should you click on the ignore button in your latest screenshot, the cafe one, you would ignore all of the cafe threads.
Should you go into cafe, in say, the Tea thread, you could then ignore just the Tea thread, while seeing all the others in your news feed.

The new software put this forum onto my ignore list, but I don't think it was there before. Going into each individual forum to ignore it is a pain, particularly because Shaun has done the usual admin's thing of inventing a whole load of new forums which I know need to ferret out.

The ad count seems to have gone up again, too.

Yes, there is, see my response to Meta above.

Yes, there is, see my response to Meta above.

But what if I want to select 20 or so forums to ignore, do I have to go into each forum and click ignore, individually?

Yes, there is, see my response to Meta above.

That's not an answer to the question asked. You used to be able to go to a list of *all* forums and choose to opt in and out of some of them, all at once. You now seem to have to go specifically to the forum you want to ignore. Which, incidentally, makes it much more difficult to opt back in to specific forums. To find this "site support" forum I had to find a specific link to it.

Oh, I see.
I'll report to Shaun about this.

Thank you

To opt back in go to Preferences > Ignoring. The opted out forum will show in the list. Click the Bin symbol and you are opted back in.

Unfortunately I had to replace the ignore add-on as the developer did not create a new version for XF2.1

I did try to copy the previous ignore data from the old add-on into the new one, but it doesn't appear to have worked. Sorry.

I'll look at whether the new one can show all forums at once, or if there's an alternative one that can.

No big deal, @Shaun, at least not for me. There are more important forum issues than this, I'm sure. Thanks from me also for doing such a great job on the new forum layout.

Not to worry, thumbs up for the new layout, looks good

Yes I think that was a good simple feature.
By the by, how do you reinstate a forum you have been ignoring?

See the post that is four posts above yours.
