is there a way to completely ignore Melon64RSS posts? ie so they dont show in "unread posts" at all?

Hi dudz, If you add Melon64RSS to your "foes" list from the User Control Panel, that may do the trick.

I've modified the search.php to ignore any posts in forum 32 which is the CSDb Entries forum, no one should see any entries from Melon64RSS in the following options,

View unanswered posts • View unread posts • View new posts • View active topics

This is a global change as I could not find a user specific way/module to ignore per user.

Have to say, I did not mind having it appear under "view new posts" while it was excluded from the most recent posts on the front page - that seemed to be a good setting.

Bot posts show up again.
