    Is it possible to filter which forums are listed when using the Unread Posts/Today's Posts/New Posts links?

    Now it is possible.

    In the UserCP under Options the very last item will allow you filter forms from view. Select the forums you do no want to see and save. My testing showed that not only are the hidden from Unread Posts/Today's Posts/New Posts but are also hidden when viewing all forums.

    I didn't know I had control over this.
    I made some quick filter changes.
    Thanks! :smilewinkgrin:

    You didn't until about 9.15am CT today...

    Keep in mind that not only are the posts from the selected areas not displayed in Unread Posts/Today's Posts/New Posts but the entire forum section is hidden from your view.

    So if you hide say the Test forum from Unread Posts/Today's Posts/New Posts you also hide it in the forums listings.
