Very nice back end options, nicely restrained icon which is also well placed to hide forums or topics. Overall I would have given it five out of five stars except for one small issue ... it seems recognize categories as forums. Clicking on ignore does not ignore category or the sub forums associated with that category. Actually I would expect/prefer categories not be able to be ignored. The hide icon/text should not show since nothing can be actually posted in them ... the opposite would be that all sub forms would also be hidden. But if that was the intent it's not working. One new optional feature that could be added is a way to identify specific forums that cannot be hidden by members.
