New Forum Feature: MyForum & Exclude Forums From Homepage

[mindfrost82]

In case you haven't read through our whole press release here when we released our new style, you may have missed out on a few new features in the forums.

First of all is MyForum:

Another new feature is called MyForums. If you're familiar with the New Posts button (that will show you the new posts from all forums). If you subscribe to some forums (while in the forum, click Forum Tools then 'Subscribe to this forum', you can select a notification option (No Email Notification is fine). After you do this to a few forums, you can click on the MyForums link in the navigation bar and it will list all of the threads and stickies in the forums you're subscribed to. This will let you easily follow your device forums or any other ones you're active in.

Another one is the ability to exclude forums from the forum homepage:

You can also exclude forums from the homepage. This will exclude them from view, and also the New Posts button, but if you search the site, it will still include those in your search. To exclude forums, go to your UserCP, then Edit Options. Near the bottom you'll see a list of the forums. You can hold down CTRL to select multiple forums to exclude. It will automatically exclude all subforums as well (so if you exclude HTC Devices under Windows Phones, it will hide ALL of the HTC Devices).

Be sure to read the news article so you can take advantage of all the new features!
