Question about threads

[lynchmob67]

Is there any way to hide specific threads? I get really triggered reading the titles of crimes against children, it hurts my heart. I would like to find a way to keep them from showing up in my new post feed.
Thanks in advance!

Ditto for animal abuse. I'd really love a way to do this!

That is a great question. Let me check with our IT people.
A quick reminder. We are upgrading our server this Friday, Valentine's Day.

The option to hide threads is only available through a software add-on. For technical reasons, we do not use add-ons at Websleuths.

Ah, too bad. Sometimes a thread has such a graphic title that I wish I could stop seeing it. Alas...

I appreciate you for checking into that.

It’s a bit tedious, but I’m able to prevent the thread from showing up in my New Post feed if I choose Crimes Against Children from the Forums list then select Mark as Read. I have to do it prior to viewing the New Post feed each time but it’s worth the few extra seconds it takes.

Edited to add - I wish I weren’t so sensitive, it must be the empath in me. Plus I have a huge soft spot for kids.
