Quick Tip: Excluding forums from New Posts list

Some members may get annoyed by the constant NZB Forum post bumps or other forum's posts showing up on the new posts list so here's how you can exclude a forum from this list.

Just add &exclude=X to the end of the newposts url (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/search-getnew/)
Where X is a list fo ForumIDs (seperated by commas) to exclude.

Example:

Code:

---

http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/search-getnew/?exclude=80,106,107,108,120

---

This will block the NZB forum's posts from showing on the new posts list.:)

Enjoy...

Nice, thanks :)

Can we have that as a quicklink, or is it too much of a personal preference to be part of the main board features?

It's like greek to me. Can you break it down? Thanks.

It's personal preference...

You can simply store it as a Bookmark/Favorite in your browser.

rossco, I just don't know how to use the info you gave. I mean do I insert an x into the/a url every time?

No, here's an example URL that i put in the first post:
http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/searc...06,107,108,120

You can just edit the numbers on the end of that URL to the forum IDs that you want to exclude.

Code:

---

http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=80,106,107,108,120

---

You can see it all in a code box.

OK I think I got it. But where are the forum ID's? Thanks.
