I had mentioned this in the other thread, “Please STOP suggesting threads for me to look into”. I thought a CSS rule might hide suggestions from the Pit category. Such a rule could be incorporated as part of the default theme.
The meta.discourse topic discussed a rule to hide “suggested topics”, which are the ones at the very bottom of the thread. Links underneath a post are called “post-links”. Upon examination, post-links don’t have category information embedded in them like suggested-topics do. That means, as far as I can tell, we can either hide them all or hide none (or rewrite the backend).
This CSS will hide all post-links, effectively disabling that feature.
.post-links-container .post-links {
display: none;
}
Now, you could do a mouseover spoiler by which the post-links only appear when hovered over. I don’t think that’s a good idea but it is possible. It would be sort of like this, except instead of clicking to reveal the spoiler, you would only hover:
Hover over blurred text below:
CSS for that mouseover-unblur effect:
.post-links-container .post-links li:not(:hover) {
filter: blur(0.5em);
}
