Greetings...

I use a website that has ubb.threads 7.5.3 and am curious if this feature is present or may be added...

I use the Watched Topics (WT) and Watched Forums (WF) as my 'start' place. Once I read a topic in the WF, I'd like to be able to 'Ignore' it and have it removed from my WF list if I don't want to read it anymore.

Example... someone starts a 'Help figure out this puzzle' topic in the 'Games' forum. It shows up on my WF list as I'm watching that forum.

I read it and decide I don't want to follow that topic... I'd like to click a check-box / drop-down / etc and chose 'Do not show topic' option.

I don't always remember which topics I've read that I will check in on later, without adding them to my WT list (which I only use for real important stuff).

Any ideas? If there is a way I'd like to suggest it to the board Admins.

Thanks and have a great week smile

It's not in the stock product (nor is there a mod for it at ubbdev) I think the closest thing that is anything like that would be the "unanswered posts" feature and that's not really connected to the functionality that you want

Greetings Gizmo (love the name... always loved his 'Rambo!' part smile )

Thank you for the reply... I don't usually go into the 'Forum List' because there are only a few topics I actually watch. However, in the Forums I watch, I like to keep up with new topics to see if any of them are ones I'd like to follow just as a curiosity.

I hope I made myself clear on what I was asking smile It's not a big thing but something that I'd use.

Thanks again and keep up the good work wink

Just fyi,
In watched topics there is a indicator that it is new.
Look for a graphic image like this.
