To be clear - I have self-hosted instance installed on vps as per standard install I would like to exclude a category from appearing in the latest topic list site wide for all users, not a setting per individual users preference. Use case: I have a category which will get a least one topic added per day. Only the most recent topic will be of any interest to any user. These daily post will clutter the topic list and cause more relevant (to the forum itself) or important topics to be pushed down the topic list and out of the view of casual users. I have found an old topic related to this subject [изображение] Suppress category from latest topics gone Support Hi Discourse Team, with one of a recent upgrade it seems the category setting Suppress category from latest topics Is missing and I can’t find in the release notes, that this was intentional? Here is the latest information I’ve found from @jomaxro https://meta.discourse.org/t/hide-category-from-latest/86023/4?u=b-iggy This was a very important setting for me. Can you please verify? Thanks I have found this plugin by communiteq from 7 years ago, does it still work?

In a perfect world my ultimate version of such a feature would show only the most recent topic from a category of my choosing in the latest topic list Did I miss something obvious?

i think this is the one you want [изображение] GitHub - discourse/discourse-categories-suppressed Contribute to discourse/discourse-categories-suppressed development by creating an account on GitHub.

I think here on Meta #forum-summaries is muted by default[1], which hides the topics for everyone who hasn’t changed this in their preferences or changed the tracking status of the individual topics. Visitors can see the topics by visiting the category, but the topics are not visible in latest by the default_categories_muted site setting ↩︎

Sorry for super dumb question, usually it is right in front of my face but how do I use this plugin? I went to category setting, tapped advance settings can’t find anything Went to Admin> plugins [image] It’s installed Learn more link leads to github with readme as follows discourse-categories-suppressed Suppress categories from latest topics page. like I said, usually it is right in front of me and I’m blind :roll_eyes:

search all site settings for “suppress” [IMG0079]

Thank you and I can report this works perfectly in the latest page and in the topics listed on the category page as well. Thank you Lilly

please select my first reply as the solution because it is more helpful given the question in the OP

[изображение] Andrew_Rowe: I like that, it would be perfect for my use case Have you tried the site setting too? I’m curious to know what advantages the plugin has over the site setting.
