Mute sub-forums on Unread Topics

[franhaselden]

It seems the majority of my memberbase use the "Recent Unread Topics" page to navigate the site. I must admit, I do too. I rarely visit each sub-forum individually.

I wondered if there is any mod out there that would allow a user to mute a sub-forum and thus not have it show up on the Recent Unread Topics list. Or even to have a different solution - an "unread topics" page where you can do some of your own subscribing and curating; the ability to choose which sub-forums do interest you and then having a "My Dashboard" type page with all the posts you've "missed".

Anything like this out there?

Built in but turned off by default. There's an option for letting users ignore boards - you'll find it in the admin panel search for 'ignore'. Users can then choose boards to ignore in their profile.

Which version is this setting available from as I can't locate it.

[Arantor]

It's in all 2.0 forums. Go to the admin panel and use the search feature there for "ignore" and it'll show you where the setting is. I don't currently have access to a 2.0 forum where I could look it up.

Admin -> Boards -> Settings -> Allow boards to be ignored

Thanks everyone, found it.
