So not only is there no "ignore" feature...

Ninjakitten

No idea if it's any good or covers what needs covering here, but https://github.com/exo-do/nodebb-plugin-ignore-users exists.

Is there an ignore thread plugin?

@TNP
I don't know what or where it is, but I think so. One forum I saw when I was looking around seemed to have an 'ignore' button at the thread level.

It's less about asking for things and more about being a twat while doing so.

This was asked for quite a long while ago with no response outside of a metaphorical shrug.

I've said it before many, many times. I'll probably wind up saying it again many, many times. "You get the behaviour you reward."

I looked at that plugin before, when it was asked for last time. It was incomplete at the time. Looking at it again, I'm not sure it matches with the version of the forums we're running. Finally, I haven't felt like making it compatible/finishing it. So no, there's no ignore user feature.

So now, a literal shrug.

The previous version was too half-assed, so I removed it. Then I actually got interested in making things work better, so here's version 2 of the userscript, which is about three-quarters-assed. It seems to work in Greasemonkey in Firefox, and will probably work in Tampermonkey in Chrome as well. Put users you want to ignore in the users array, and threads in the threads array. Spelling, capitalization, and punctuation matter. It doesn't eliminate users entirely (they can still message you, you'll still see quotes of them, threads they reply to will still pop up as having a new post, etc.) but it hides their posts and optionally threads they started.

If I get bored/inspired maybe I'll make a version 3 with more bells and whistles, but for now, here you go.

Well that was a roller coaster ride of emotions and bad decisions.

Since I actually have someone I want to ignore now, here's a slight update of the script to fix the bit that I see broke with the new version of the forum. It's still not fancy, but it does a basic job. Works in Firefox with Greasemonkey, probably works in Chrome with Tampermonkey but I've not tested that.

(function ($) {

    // Users you want to ignore
    var users = ["Name1","Name2","NameN"];

    // Threads you want to ignore
    var threads = ["Thread1","Thread2","ThreadN"];

    // Ignore threads started by ignored users? (true or false)
    var hideStartedBy = true;

    function cleanUsers() { 
      $.each(users,function(index,value) {
          $('li[data-username="'+value+'"]').css('display','none');
          $('span[data-original-title="'+value+'"]').closest('.card').css('display','none');
      });
    }
    function cleanThreads() {
        $.each(threads,function(index,value) {
            $('meta[content="'+value+'"]').parent('li.row').css('display','none');
        });
        if (hideStartedBy) {
            $.each(users,function(index,value) {
                $('.pull-left div[data-original-title="'+value+'"]').closest('li[component="category/topic"]').css('display','none');
            });
        }
    }

    cleanUsers();
    cleanThreads();

    $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
