Summary

In 2.0, by default, any users listed in your ignore list for private messages will by default have their posts hidden as well - you can see them by clicking on the 'Show me the post link'.

This mod adds the same feature for 1.1 users - no 2.0 version is required.

Installation
Package Manager should work in most cases.

The manual edits are to Display.php with some language edits, as in the package

its possible to hide all post and details poster?

[Blinker]

Another good mod, thanks Arantor...you're on a roll dude.

[Arantor]

its possible to hide all post and details poster?

It's possible however that would be a huge amount of modding to do; this simply backports functionality already in 2.0 to 1.1. If you wanted to completely hide that post as though it had never been written - from your personal ignore list - likely you'd miss parts of the conversation, and there would be a performance hit too.

Note that even 2.0 does not offer that as an option.

I guessed you were, otherwise you wouldn't be looking at the mod.

Like I said, it's a lot of work to physically strip the post from the query if they're on your ignore list, and having been in forums where this was implemented it actually makes it more confusing because you're not seeing the full conversation. Note also that there will be a LARGE performance hit across the forum for this.

This way the post is hidden by default but you can opt to see it if you want.

I won't be adding that functionality to this mod. It may be done for a future mod, but I doubt it unless you want to make it a paid for request.

[Sabre™]

This is cool!
Similar to the 'marked as spam' thing I see at Utube.
Very nice, and thanks

[mandukar]

this is a feature for 2.0 already implanted.

On second thought. You're right. It's totally unnecessary.

Arantor, how do you add members to your list?

[Arantor]

Same way you add them to your PM ignore list - Profile > Personal Message Options > add the name in the big box.

It's never been clear in 2.0 that this also hides the messages. I will at some point tidy up the readme.

[Richardgm]

Love it. As others suggested it would be great to disregard the user totally... not just ("you are ignoring this user")...

[Arantor]

Completely ignoring a user isn't in either 1.1 or 2.0, and doing so raises a number of issues, such as performance considerations, not to mention the fact it would break a large number of other mods.

[Richardgm]

Ah! Well, thanks for this anyhow; I'm sure my members will be happy.

[Shannar]

How about hide attachments from ignored users?

[Arantor]

It's only geared to the main post content, though I can look at this next week when I'm back home.

[ოկtђ]

Turkish

Code Select Expand

$txt['ignoringuser'] = 'Bu kullanıcıyı yok saydınız.';
$txt['showmepost'] = 'Bana bu mesajı göster.';

[Arantor]

Thanks for the Turkish translation

I'll add that when I get back next week.

[LuminaRS]

Are you able to ignore administrators/global moderators? Looking to install this, but I don't want regular members to be able to ignore admins/global mods.

[Arantor]

This mod makes no differentiation. If the user puts an admin or global moderator on their ignore list, their posts will be hidden, just as they would in 2.0's feature (and this is a form of backport)
