Let members hide individual user signatures in XenForo while continuing to read their posts normally.
Users can remove distracting signatures directly from message controls, review every hidden signature from their account, and restore one or several signatures whenever they choose.
Hiding or restoring a signature updates all messages and signature controls for that member on the current page.
Members can also hide a signature directly from their account by entering a username with XenForo's autocomplete.
Features:
Per-User Signature Control: Hide the signature of a specific member without ignoring the member or their content.
Instant Signature Hiding: Use the signature action below a message to hide or restore that member's signature.
AJAX Confirmation: Apply signature visibility changes through an overlay without a full page reload.
Account Management: Review all members whose signatures are hidden from the dedicated account page, accessible from account navigation and the visitor menu.
Quick Filtering: Find hidden signatures with XenForo's AJAX quick filter, including optional prefix matching.
Bulk Restoration: Select multiple members and restore their signatures through XenForo's native inline moderation interface.
Configurable Limit: Set the maximum number of user signatures each member may hide.
User Group Permission: Control which user groups can use signature hiding.
Requirements:
XenForo 2.3.0+
Useful for:
Busy Discussions: Reduce visual clutter while keeping every post and member visible.
Compact Browsing: Remove oversized or distracting signatures for a cleaner reading experience.
Member Choice: Let each user manage signature visibility independently without affecting anyone else.- 🛠 Community Administration: Set access by user group and limit how many signatures a member can hide.
FAQ:
Does hiding a signature ignore the member or their posts? No. Only that member's signature is hidden for the current user; their posts remain visible.
Can a hidden signature be restored later? Yes. Members can restore it below a message or from the Ignored signatures page in their account.
Can several signatures be restored at once? Yes. The account page supports multi-selection and a native XenForo inline action for bulk restoration.
Can access be restricted by user group? Yes. The add-on provides a user group permission for signature hiding.
