How to unfollow topic

[PX-Z]

I have just posted the link of this topic to the chat, so let's see what is the official answer from Admin.
There is no reason to keep this disabled if there is option in backend to enabled it, and I am sure most members would not have anything against my suggestion.

Not as simple as turning it on from the backend; some features require a lot of time and money to implement; the ALT software is outdated and would require a lot of funds to improve things; and let us not forget that a lot of money were spent on the current BTT software; the admin here is patching everything around here on his own without much financial assistance.

If we want more features we need to start using the donation addresses more to support the admin and the forum.

On developer's point of view, i can tell it can be easy to implement such thing only if the database structure is normalized and organized, if not, it could be pain in the a*s for a forum as big as this and with number of users and threads. So yeah, i can feel admin's disappointment when a thing or two cannot be changed/fixed due to the data complications and due age of the software.

Looks like there's nothing you can do about it, i expect its the same the "unwatch" feature in bitcointalk so threads will not show on your "Show new replies"

You are absolutely right, I completely agree with but I highly doubt anybody will even consider using the donation address except the admin calls for it, not when people users are also after their own pockets and haven't gotten enough yet.

What I did suggest is that maybe it's time admin special thread in the forum discussion board where he will always announce whats the next feature he is working on, and through that, solicit for support from the forum users, I believe with this, alot of persons in campaign may be more willing to spare $10, $20 or more from their weekly pay to support the admin in improving the forum.

Many users suggested reducing the amount of boards, but admin just created new ones...

Remember to always think positive and have happy thought, or admin is going to say you are a negative hater
 

this forum is an old car barely able to roll

That old truck is going to go much longer distance than brand new tesla electric crap.
Let's see what happens in few months and if something changes...

Just imagine how much harder is to run bigger forums like btctalk

Theymos also do basically everything on his own in BTT. He paid new software but it was not as good as SMF, there are some details about it here

Although it is a link to BTT, even admin should read it to learn more about SMF forum development.

I really doubt there is a great mess like that.

This forum uses SMF, which is a great software (like WordPress) that has and easy to use API that does most important stuff. There are also add-ons and extensions to extra functionality.

Is there any way to unfollow topic in forum and how to do it?
This includes any topic where I wrote anything in the past, and I can always see them if I click on Show new replies to your posts.
In Bitcointalk and other forums I can simply click unfollow and those topics won't show anymore for me.

This is more question for Admin but other members can also reply.

Well well you guys really use this feature of show new replies to your posts, because what I usually do is go to my profile and my posts and look where I have posted or I open sections and on most of the threads I have replied so when I found nothing new or when I want to know more about the same thread I just open it instead of opening this but yeah this is just one of the many ways to do it.

Overall I hope there would be such feature added soon because I find none and even admin has confirmed so.
