Thanks to tautech for pointing this out originally!)https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/forum-update-new-ignore-topics-feature/msg651768/#msg651768Quote

content: Do you mean search in the browser? Yes, don't see it. I even disabled adblocker. I understand that I miss something obvious, but I can't find it.

content: Quote from: exe on January 26, 2020, 07:45:47 pmWhile in the "Show new replies to your posts." list, look at the right side, there must be radio button at every threads you subscribed, click the one you want to stop subscribing, then look up, you will find a button named "IGNORE TOPICS".

content: Yes, but if you ignore topics they will not show up ever again, I think he just wants to stop the notifications.

content: I have the same issue with the "What did you buy today" thread, which I made the mistake of replying to years ago. I don't want to turn off all notifications, just the one for that thread. And I don't want to ignore that thread, just stop it from showing up in "Replies to your posts" every day. I concluded it wasn't possible to do that, but had not considered deleting my post to that thread (if the board would let me do that after all this time).

content: The way I read it is that OP doesn't want the topics to appear in the "Show new replies to your posts" list. OP, can you clarify?

content: Quote from: edavid on January 27, 2020, 05:39:33 pmYes, correct.Thank you all for helping, now I get it: I needed to enable this feature. I think somehow I missed from the first answer the instruction how to enable it. Or, may be, it was edited after I saw it.

content: There really should be a simple button to press that cancels further notifications for a given thread, both in email and in "Show new replies to your posts," without tying it to any global forum settings or (mis)using the Ignore feature.
