Also Block Quotes of Members I've Blocked

[Chris]

Code:

Add the following code to your Global Footer (_{how to edit your forum headers & footers})

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function (){
	/* Also block the quotes of people I have blocked - Sep 4, 2015 */
	var block_quotes = function block_quotes() {
		var block_list = proboards.data("user").block_list;

		if (block_list && block_list.user_ids && block_list.user_ids.length) { //no block list then no point
			$('.quote[author]').each(function (i, quote) {
				var user = $('.quote_header a.user-link', this);
					if (user.length && (user.idFromClass('user')in block_list) ) {
						var contents = $(quote).addClass('blocked').children()
						contents.hide();
						$('<div class="quote_body"><div class="quote note pad-bottom">This quote is hidden</div><a href="#" class="button display-blocked-quote" role="button">Display Quote</a></div>')
						.insertAfter(contents)
						.find('a')
						.click(function(){
							contents.show();
							$(this).closest('.quote_body').remove();
							return false;
						})
					}
			})
		}
	}
	proboards.on('afterSearch', block_quotes);
	block_quotes()
})
</script>

   If you want to see the author of the quote (see second image under preview) then use this code instead
   

   <script>
   $(function (){
   	/* Also block the quotes of people I have blocked - Mar 20, 2017 */
   	var block_quotes = function block_quotes() {
   		var block_list = proboards.data("user").block_list;
   
   		if (block_list && block_list.user_ids && block_list.user_ids.length) { //no block list then no point
   			$('.quote[author]').each(function (i, quote) {
   				var user = $('.quote_header a.user-link', this);
   					if (user.length && (user.idFromClass('user')in block_list) ) {
   						var contents = $(quote).addClass('blocked').children()
   						contents.hide();
   						$('<div class="quote_body"><div class="quote note pad-bottom">This quote by ' + user[0].outerHTML + ' is hidden</div><a href="#" class="button display-blocked-quote" role="button">Display Quote</a></div>')
   						.insertAfter(contents)
   						.find('a')
   						.click(function(){
   							contents.show();
   							$(this).closest('.quote_body').remove();
   							return false;
   						})
   					}
   			})
   		}
   	}
   	proboards.on('afterSearch', block_quotes);
   	block_quotes()
   })
   </script>

OLD CODE REMOVED

How do I change "This quote is hidden" so that the handle of the blocked user shows in the message as "This quote by blockedUser is hidden"

[Chris]

The second code does that

Thank you.

I just want to get something clear.
I have blocked MemberA so I don't see posts that he makes.
However, if MemberB makes a post in which he quotes MemberA's post then the quoted post appears in MemberB's post.
Do both sets of code prevent this from happening?
Do they work on posts made before the addition of the code?

[Chris]

It blocks the quotes of people you have on your block list when they are quoted by people who are not on your block list. Member-B's post won't be blocked since he is not on your block list but if he quotes member-A (who is on your block list) then member-B's post will show as normal with a slight modification that the quote(s) by member-A within that post is blocked out, you can read the rest of the post made by member-B without having to see what member-A said (unless curiosity gets the best of you and you need to see what member-A said and unhide the quote).

The second code shows who the block member is and the first code leaves that member anonymous (your preference, choose one).

Both codes work on all posts going back to Fred Flintstone, not just posts created since the code was installed.
