Removing actual forums, not sections

[Calvin]

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

i've mentioned this before and they said an addon will be needed but they are against using too many for some bizzare reason

Hiding one forum is a little pointless if you want the rest to show 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 that

Consider yourself blessed darling; I can't even hide sections, everytime I refresh they maximize.

Same here, really annoying :@

Or it would be nice to choose what sections appear on your new posts list

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.

2) Permission masks would require every user that wants it to be done through an administrator in admincp. And due to security issues that have evolved in the past, we try to minimize access mask usage as much as possible.


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.
