Can one default categories to Ignoring instead of Watching?
-
I would like to have most categories be ignored by default. So, for example, I might want this setup
- Announcements: Watching
- Questions: Ignoring
- General Discussion: Ignoring
I would even like to have the option of ignoring ALL categories by default, if that is the only way.
Thanks

@deiden26 it's not a simple change to accomplish that. Only the categories ignored are maintained at the user level.
You can create a plugin to listen for action hooks on new category creation and new user creation to do that.
On
action:category.create... get a list of all users and callUser.ignoreCategoryfor each user to add it to their ignoring categories list.On
action:user.create... get a list of all categories and callUser.ignoreCategoryfor each category.Obviously for all existing categories and users, you will have to write a one time script to do it.

@pichalite Thanks. I will just disable the Unread section for now.

yes... that plugin does what I summarized except the existing categories and users part.
