Wish to stop selected forums showing in forum display

[Steve Bullman]

Evening guys.  On my old vbulleitn board in the forum settings there was an option to not display a forum, but it could still be visited if the location was known.  Does such a setting exist on IPS as I can't find it?

 

Thanks

I'm not sure we are supposed to do tech stuff in this forum but:

If you don't care that it exists in the browser source html you can use custom css to make it not show:

body[data-pagemodule="forums"][data-pagecontroller="index"] [data-forumid="16"] {display:none};

Otherwise unless someone comes up with a setting, you could modify the forum index template to check forum id and not generate row, but that is maintenance pain.

Thank you.  Sorry, I wasn't 100% sure which forum to post this in.

Actually after implementing the css code you provided it isn't working as I had hoped.

 

I am trying to mot the sponsored forums from the list as it is stretching the other forums in grid format, as in this image:

 

 

However with the code implemented it removes the forum form the list but messes up the grid system...the software is acting like its still there and stretching the 2 grids to the left:

 

 

Is there a way round this within that code?

 

Mods, please move to appropriate section for me.

To get this done on the traditional list view I've been using this plugin for over a year (having used it on IPB 3.4 before that):

I'm not sure if it works with grid view but I would assume it does.

Perfect Simon, installed and works a treat, thanks.

I spoke to soon, this doesnt seem to work in mobile view.  Can anyone else confirm the same?

 

Looks like the developer hasn't signed in since septmeber 2016 either.

The file has a support topic:

Why don't you request support first instead of make a 3 stars review in the file?

[Steve Bullman]

Because i didn't see the support topic and it only half works.

 

Thanks for the link
