Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.In the left sidebar on the forum page there is a block "New forum topics".
I think it would be a good idea to prevent any posts that have been flagged as spam from showing up here.

drummThis is currently the core new forum topics block. If we want to do this, the block should be replaced with a Views block so it can use the extra filters.

JvE commentedI think it's worth it.
In the current situation you might as well remove the block:

japerryI agree -- at least if something is tagged as spam, its still published but the link hit rate will go down.

japerryPushed an update to the dev branch which includes a view that filters out the flagged spam forum topics.

drummLooks okay, and I went ahead and removed some workarounds we had for the core forum block.
Comment #8
drummThis has been deployed, but it missed some formatting work.
Comment #10
drummSpecifically, the list style adds the same margins that were present on the core block, making the list readable.

JvE commentedAwesome. I just marked a new piece of spam and it was gone from the block immediately.

john morahan commentedMight it be an idea to do the same thing with the block at https://www.drupal.org/#tab-forum ?
