    Could we get those [-] symbols for each subforum category instead of for each main category?

    I'd shrink the newsgroups and the non-serious discussions for less scrolling to the forums I actually want, but right now this isn't possible. Hiding a whole forum group isn't very practical to anyone, cause there is such varied stuff in each.

    I'm sure people who use solely bittorrent/ newsgroup would appreciate this. Maybe also people who have no interest in certain category's that are high up on the list but who like the lower forums.

    I agree...I have no knowledge or interest in NZB for example...so I would do to the same for those forums

    I assume you guys have FST in your bookmarks. Have you tried adding forum IDs to the exemption list?

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

    For example:
    Code:
    http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=80,106,107,108,120
    This will block the NZB forum's posts from showing on the new posts list.

    EDIT: The ForumIDs are shown at the end of the section name in the URL. For this section it would be:

    Code:
    http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-everything-related-board-9
    So instead of seeing posts in sections you care nothing about, just re-click your FST bookmark and you'll only see posts from sections you choose to see.

    Skiz, they just meant in the main forum index, not in New Posts.

    Right now you can collapse the following:
    Forum Information & News
    File Sharing Discussions and Support
    Off-Topic Discussions and Support
    Report Section
    What they want is to be able to also collapse:
    Forum Information & News
    File Sharing Discussions and Support
    BitTorrent
    NewsGroups

    Off-Topic Discussions and Support
    Technological Discussions
    Other Serious Discussions
    Non-Serious Discussions

    Report Section
    This is a good suggestion, I'll try to work on that in the future.

    Yea, I just thought my suggestion would keep them from seeing unwanted stuffs.

    I know that doesn't work for all, as everyone likes to browse the board in their own way.

    Thanks for the reminder on customizing a bookmark tab. I had been using a customized one for the longest time but it broke when the board was restructured a bit not too long ago. I'll remake a new tab cause that solution was pretty good.

    What Tesco said was exactly what I meant, I think that would be something useful to mod into the site in the future, whenever you have some free time.

    Yes it will come with the next site update.
