I'm pretty sure you can do that with the version i have. Instead of entering 2 user names, you just enter the 1 person and it makes everyone ignore them.

Does it tell everyone the people is on their ignore list? If so, it's useless to me.

Hello, if your talking about staff members blocking other staff members or blocking users then yes it would work if they have administrative access. So yes, it can allow staff to block a member.

Hello, excellent that's what I needed to know. Thank you for the reply.

What are you referring to exactly and would a usergroup permission be sufficient?

When a user puts someone in ignore, they should see nothing at all of the ignored users posts and reply. Nothing.
A home run would be to allow an admin to force ignore by username, and usergroup.

Looks like the problem I mention above has been fixed.
One suggestion: The option should exist to force one person to ignore another. As it now works, both are forced to ignore the other, which shouldn’t happen. If one person is a problem when replying to another, I want him to be forced to ignore the other person, but not visa versa.

I will take your suggestion into consideration, it will be posted as a feature suggestion on our Github Issue Tracker.

Is it possible to hide a user’s posts from registered users only, or by usergroup? I have put a few people on force ignore, with the second field left blank, which hides there posts from everyone but themselves. The problem is they log off and notice their posts are hidden.
Bottom line: The option to force ignore by usergroup would be very helpful.

I think this add-on is better suited to force two users to ignore each other rather than being used as a global ignore. With our Global Ignore add-on you do have the option for a user to be automatically ignored by all users (with the option for the posts to still show up for guests, and hide for registered users)

I use global ignore also, mostly because it’s easier to use. But global ignore has the same limitations - a user on global ignore can, and very often does, log off and return to find their posts aren’t visible.

Are you using the latest version? We've recently (a month or two ago) completely rebuilt that add-on from the ground up and there is an option (which is enabled by default) to show all globally ignored content to guests

Is there a 2.0 version of this, or maybe in the plans? Could really use this for otherwise good members that can’t stop fighting each other

We haven't really decided if we will port this add-on over to XenForo 2.0 but if we consider it in the future we will leave an official post here.

Please do. But make it not visible to either user. The XF stock ignore is of little value to me. Telling a user that there are posts by ignore users defeats the entire purpose of an ignore feature.
