Want to mute one or more threads because you’re not interested in receiving notifications? Here’s how:
To mute a whole bunch of threads at once, first you need to search for them. Here’s a sample link of a search for posts tagged early-decision and official: http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/search?q=early-decision%20tags%3Aearly-decision%2Cofficial
Second, you need to select the posts by clicking the little list icon and choosing “Select All”:
Third, you’ll notice a little wrench appear to the right. Click on that and it will bring up a menu. Choose “Notifications”:
Fourth, choose “Mute” and hit the “Change Notifications” button.
PROTIP: you can mute more than 50 posts at once, but you have to scroll down in the search results to load them all before you hit Select All.
