"Ignore" Feature

[Ron Thorne]

There is no Ignore feature on this board, per se, but there is a feature which is essentially the same ... Friends or Foes. I had forgotten about this until this afternoon, when another poster mentioned it to me. It's in our FAQ page, but there's a direct, clickable link below.

I didn't have to hold my breath long for that response.

There is no way currently within phpBB to automatically block all foe PMs, but there is a way for recipients of PMs from foes to automatically delete them via a personal PM rule setting.

Screenshots provided below.

First, go to the "Rules, folders & settings" section of your PM area.



Then create a new rule defined as "Sender is foe: Delete Message" as shown below:

Sender


is foe


Delete message

I don't know if anyone has mentioned a minor difference that I believe exists between the JT "foe list" feature and JC's ignore feature. With JC's Ignore, you still saw when the people on your ignore list had posted and could then chose to view each post, one at a time. It appears that the JT foe feature doesn't show where a foe has posted.

You can still view the posts made by those on your foe list. There is a link provided.

I temporarily added you as a foe, and this is what I saw on the thread:

I went ahead and corrected the wording to match better with the friend/foe wording used everywhere else.
