Phantom chapters clogging up lists. Is there a way to remove ALL chapters NOT on mangadex from all site pages?

There appears to be a remarkable increase of 'phantom' chapters here at manga dex,
ie: the chapter shows up in lists, updates, etc. But when you go to read it, it is actually not there.

Is there a way to remove these chapters from all of this sites listings?

It is getting real tiresome to click a chapter, and then it not actually being there.

Settings -> More settings -> Unavailable chapters = hide.

I never understood why people enable some options (disabled by default iirc) if they don't use it... :/

It is all ready set to hide, still see hundreds of unavailable chapters everwhere.

example page: https://mangadex.org/updates
more specifically all those 'MangaPlus' chapters, they are not hidden, and when 'oh cool, an update I'll go read....', it isn't actually here!

I don't see any unavailable chapters there. MangaPlus is visible because it's readable. I can understand you probably don't like external links but it doesn't make chapter "phantom". When it get removed it becomes hidden. I see no problems here.

Those arent phantom chapters. Those are chapters linked in affiliate with the official releases for the WSJ titles. Phantom Chapters would be if X person uploaded chapters far ahead then deleted them and kept repeating that. Atleast untill they got banned that is

Group hiding is a planned feature and it should address this issue eventually

Reminder that we're not affiliated with MangaPlus in any way, shape or form, we just link to their chapters so people can get notified, keep track of reads and discuss them on mangadex
