Extension summary

This extension adds a link 'ignore' to the right side of a group (just after the link "View a HIT in this group." Clicking the ignore link will mark a group as ignored which is visually represented by 'greying out' the group.

This is useful if you are seeing the same group appear while browsing for HITs and want to mark them as groups you are not interested in.

Note that even while ignored a group is still fully functional on the site. It is only altered visually.

User reviews

Only had it for a day but love it! There are so many HITs that are for specific groups/people that I don't qualify for. This makes it much easier to scroll through the site.
