Why on earth would I want to change the status on the Unread filter to New? There's already a "new" filter for that. > I have killfile filters for New, Today, Unread, and All. Works great. I know how it is _supposed_ to work. Hiding posts according to Score, however, doesn't work. I have both the Unread and New filters modified to operate on "Single Articles", and include only scores >=0, and posts routinely appear with negative scores. Incidentally, the KNode manual says that Ignoring threads operates by setting the score to -100 so that the thread can't be seen. That doesn't work either - ignoring a thread hides it _now_ but any future posts in the thread will be shown - just like changing the score for an author. -- derek
