Don't see what the issue is. If the last post is a long one, and I want to quote a portion of it, I'll use the "Reply" button and then edit the quote. If users are using the "Add Reply" button all the time, rather than using the quick reply by clicking on the text box, that's a user education issue. The existing system is just fine.

I don't mind testing for you as my members are really starting to chew my hind end for this. I can forward the sphinx.php file to you if you wish.

I noticed that there are edits to sql.php. Will this modification work if the site uses Sphinx?

Much appreciated. And we do tend to make contributions for well written modifications we use on the site. ;)

Is this going to be updated? Or should I find someone who'll write it for me?

We'll just have to agree to disagree with that. While a normal person would just ignore the post without ever using the ignore feature, there are those narcissistic users who just can't help but to click through to read what was posted, and start the flame war all over again. By completely removing the post from the user's view makes for a calmer and more pleasant environment for all concerned.

If number one is ever (heaven forbid) implemented, Admins MUST have a way of prohibiting it from being used on their site. I don't care if users ignore each other, but I will not stand for users determining who can and who can not post on the site. As for number 2, why in tarnation isn't it done this way to begin with? If a user is on ignore, everything from that user shouldn't be displayed to the person. Posts, topics, etc. Should all be hidden from view.

Any idea when this will be released for 3.1? Used something similar on vB and it's a must for our site. Unfortunately, one of the files that need to be modified is no longer there with the newest IPB version (adminapplicationsforumsextensionssearchPlugin.php).
