DW Feature: Can I Use Tags to Avoid Posts?

[jesse_the_k]

Following up on yesterday's post, I think I can follow other's peoples' tags using post notifications. I don't think if I can suppress posts.

To follow, I turn on post notifications by example.

1. At a relevant post, click the "alarm" or "track" link.

2. In the pop-up "email me when" click the "more options" button

3. At the resulting "Manage Message Settings" screen, the bottom offers
Track Entries to this Journal
Notify me in my DW Inbox when
One of the options will show
$name_of_journal posts a new entry tagged and then pick a tag from the dropdown menu.

Is this correct? Is there a way to suppress a post based on its tags?

I've never used it but there's a chrome extension called DW blocker that I know a lot of people use to block dreamwidth content. I think this is it.

Holy molybdenum that looks great (if it works)! Will report back.

That's not the right tool. This Chrome extension provides four functions that I don't really understand:

1. "Action tag" which inserts HTML for smaller text within brackets.
2. "Autoload comment pages on scroll" which may recreate Tumblr's endless scroll navigation
3. Define a CSS-type style for "text tags," which I think affects <tt> and <code> content
4. Imgur album specification, which is totally mysterious.

Darn.

Oooh! This may be the right one

Dreamwidth Blocker Userscript

https://dwblock.neocities.org/dwblock.html

claims it's compatible with Greasemonkey (FF) and Tampermonkey (Chrome). Now to see if it works.
