Some people find the RSS news feeds annoying, if you want to block them all so they don't show up in "new messages", just go to the User CP and add "RSSfeed" to your ignore user list. 8)

    Re: Blocking RSS News Feeds

    What I would like to do is block the RSSfeeds threads from showing up in "New Posts" and "Today's Posts". Is that possible?

    Does this still work ? I've only been able to mark ALL forums read, and adding RSS to the ignore, still lists all the postings.

    I think the new forum SW does not allow markign just 1 sub-forum as read

    It works. You have to go to that section of the forum, where all the threads are listed. There's a "Forum Tools" sub menu just under the forum heading (in the blue bar). Second choice is "Mark This Forum Read".

    I just read through the regular threads and then hit Mark Forums Read to clear out the RSS feed (if there are a lot).

    Try this link:

    Add a Member to Your List...

    User Name

    Add "RSSfeed" to the field, hit OK (things "go blank").

    Refresh (or click the link above), and you should see a list of ignored users.
    To remove a user from your ignore list, un-check the box associated with their name and click the 'Save Changes' button.

    To add a user to the list, enter their name into the empty text box and click 'Okay'.
