request for ignore-topic function

Post by **Tyler** » Fri Nov 12, 2004 3:33 pm

This is not an available feature to phpBB (the software that runs this forum), and I have neither the know-how, nor desire to program the feature in myself.

Sorry.

Tyler

Tyler I think you already have something like that. The e-mail I get lets me ignore the topic.

Or you can do this.

If you no longer wish to watch this topic you can either click the "Stop watching this topic link" found at the bottom of the topic above, or by clicking the following link:

Hi Tyler,

Does this mean that if you click the "watch this topic" button, you get an email every time a new reply is posted?

Rad,

That's exactly what it does. You can also go into your profile and set it so that ever post that you post to is automatically "watched" so that you receive an e-mail everytime someone replies. I like that feature a lot.

random,

In rereading your last post, I think you must mean that you are not worried about the e-mail feature, but on the forum in general? If that is the case, I revert back to my original comment. There is no feature that does that.

Random, if you are looking to save time while perusing the forums, after you log in, there is a link just above the forum on the right hand side of the screen labelled "view posts since last visit". This is a huge time saver, and points you right to topics with posts since your last visit.
