Ignore thread in discussion overview

phloo

Is it possible to extend the "three dots" menu in the discussions list view so that users are able to ignore threads without visiting them?

phloo you totally can.

Actually the subscriptions extension already adds a multi-purpose link that allows to stop ignoring The unique follow/unfollow button is replaced with "unignore".

To add a new different button or replace the existing one you can get inspiration from the way subscription adds its button https://github.com/flarum/subscriptions/blob/master/js/src/forum/addSubscriptionControls.js#L9

Thanks, I will look into this. The hint is excellent.
Guess the part that is important, to use
import DiscussionListItem from 'flarum/components/discussion-list-item';

phloo if you want to put your button in this menu

Then you can directly copy the code from subscribe that extends DiscussionControls. The line I linked is responsible for the "Follow" button on my screenshot.

There's nothing named flarum/components/discussion-list-item. If that's really the component you need, the import will be called flarum/components/DiscussionListItem.

clarkwinkelmann yes, exactly where I want to put the option.
I searched quickly for different code sections, that why I came up with the above code.

Thanks for helping again. Maybe an option to implement this to the extension 🙂

phloo Did you figure out how to do this?
For my forum I am in much more need of an ignore function than the ability to follow a certain discussion.
