It would be useful to be able to selectively ignore forums that are not of interest to the member. An add-on like this one could be used.
Now that you mention it, I am finding lately that searching for new posts gives me multiple pages of hits I am not interested in. Had not thought about looking for a way to filter them.
Thanks, I'll consider this too. It always comes down to: more plugins requires more time to be set aside to upgrade the forums / install security patches.
