New forum features

[saint]

1. Video links should automatically embed now for most sites - some 40+ sites. No need for bbc code, just post the link.

2. Ignore user feature added. Have to admit I'm pretty iffy on this one - if it's more devisive than it's helpful it may be taken back out. Go into your profile to be able to add a user to your personal ignore list.

I added a user to my ignore list but the posts continue to be seen.  Is there something else that I need to do?  The username is correct.

Thanks Saint.

Hm. Try switching your theme to the SMF default theme. It may be theme specific. Let me know?

The ignore list dialog has a checkbox for "show only buddies" if you search for a membername.   

I'm seeing the same thing HoopZ is... tried to ignore someone, can still see their posts, in the default blue/white theme.

EDIT:  I was wrong.  I was using the Classic YabbSE theme.  Changed to the default and ignore works.  I see the posts but the content is blocked.  There is a "user is ignored" message instead.   


EDIT2:  Confirmed... works in the SMF Default theme but not the Board Default.

Thanks. We run into that more and more with mods -- only the SMF default theme gets updated by the mod, and any other themes we have to update manually. I'll take a look when I get home, but I suspect people wanting to ignore users are going to have to switch to the SMF theme.

Yes the SMF theme does it.  Thanks for adding the mod. 

This theme definitely is different!  I never played with the themes before.
