Lightbulb  Ability to hide unwanted Addons in list? Post: #1
There are several add-ons in the official and inside non-official repositories that I cannot use due to language barriers, or are simply not interested in. Is there we can get the option to hide those from the list so we don't have to see them each time we look for new add-ons?

Currently no, not that I'm aware of.

Personally wouldn't find it all that useful either....

Whats the issue with it displaying them?

Well I've all the other repositories from the wiki with the unofficial ones added.

Most have one or two add-ons I like, but others I just can't / won't use, like the TVNZ plugin or some broken ones.

It is really just for organizational / clutter reasons. Instead of having a list of 50 TV Add-Ons, I hide the ones I am not interested in having.

I'm not sure if there's any better way to do it to be honest - after all, it's just an install list, it's not a use list.

One thing that we'll add is geo-ip filtering (optional, ofcourse) to filter the list of anything that you likely won't be able to use (such as TVNZ ones).

If there are broken addons then they need to be marked as broken - let us know what they are (if they're in the official repo) or contact the repo owner.

Cheers,
Jonathan
