>I
by far prefer the old way of selecting which forum I want to read with the cbo. It's hugely annoying having to weed through messages from the other forums.
We asked for a few days, from several threads on this forum, for what members wanted to have as additional options in order to be prepared for this change. When there was no new request, we released it last night. Simply let me know what other options you would like to have which would ease your way of working into this mode.
As for messages you don't want to see in other forums, if you really don't want to see them, at first, I would suggest you remove the participation in those forums from your setup. See also forum ordering that has been added in Forums in order to define the priority of which messages should come first. There is also the coloring syntax that has been added in order to respond to a better forum separation identification when reading messages. And, of course, we'll do more, as far as new options go in regards to this, in order to have something that you will still be satisfied from.
