Is there anyway we can remove actual forums such as Anime etc. (people can still see them, just you can remove them for yourself like the section minimize) as I have no interest in them and theres no point of them being there.
I'm not sure if theres an addon for it?
I believe management are currently against adding anymore addons :)Quote:

Hiding one forum is a little pointless if you want the rest to show :P It's not possible at the moment and I don't think it'd be a greatly used feature to warrant spending time finding an addon for it to happen.
Security issues or something like thatQuote:

Oh so it's not just me. I feel better.
You can block people from forums using the permission mask, which Jamesey will know how to use, if your going to put this into place i'd like to have a few forums removed. It's not a addon
1) Blocking the forum through access masks would mean that they're unable to use it, not that its just minimized. Any thread in that forum would be unviewable, even if they were linked to it.Quote:

The only way to avoid this would be to make a specific joinable usergroup that blocks specifically that forum (you'd still have problem number 1), and it would be silly to create those groups for each forum, especially because we're beyond what we technically should be in terms of usergroups.
Nvr's got it really, we all know how to use Access Masks Ross, however it's pointless and unncessary for an administrator to edit a users access masks just so they can't see a particular forum - extra and unnecesssary work.Quote:

This is how to do it, after installing the plugin -
On Forum Home:
- Go onto the forum index, right click and click "View Source"
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1508.png- Press Ctrl+F and type in the name on the forum you wish to hide
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1509.png- Above the name, find the forum ID, in our case 1382
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1510.png- Note this ID down
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1511.png- Repeat steps 2-4 for any more forums you wish to hide.
Now lets make the Greasemonkey Script:
- Create a new Greasemonkey script (also make sure it is Enabled)
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1512.png- Fill in the box as follows
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1514.png
(Name: Hide Forums
Namespace: http://www.habboxforum.com/
Description: Hide some forums on HabboxForum
Includes (One per line): http://www.habboxforum.com/forum.php
Excludes (One per line):- Click OK
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1515.png- It should ask you to locate to your text editor - unfortunately I have already done this so I can't screenshot it for you. If it does, navigate to C:\Windows\System32\notepad.exe (replace C:\ with the drive of your Windows installation). If not, and it opens in notepad, move onto the next step
- Below all the writing in the notepad, add this code:
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1517.png
HTML Code:javascript:document.getElementById("forum1328").style.display = "none";
- Replace 1328 with the ID you noted down before.
- Repeat the code on a new line for each forum ID you wish to hide, replacing the ID with the forum on each one.
- Press Ctrl+S to save (or File > Save)
http://uploads.bobble.be/2010-08-24_1519.png- Now you are done! If any problems occur feel free to contact me/reply to this post
Hope I could help :)
