If your bookmarks aren't working try going to "customise" and then making sure that the "display bookmarks" option is switched to "yes".

It appears that a recent issue has caused some people's accounts to switch to the "no" position.

Hope that helps

So banging the top of the monitor isn't really a viable option then?

I've done that Cari but the bookmark is still not working sad

phoenix I find that fixes most things

when... oh sad

Hmm - it fixed all of ours. May be worth closing the browser and trying again - if it doesn't work please email us and let us know what browser you are using too.

jeni the bookmark sign appears and tells me it's saved when I click on it, but disappears when I go back. Tech is having a look at it.

I've tried that several times over the last week or so to no avail Cari,and closed the browser too.
I keep clicking them on in the hope that tech will do it in the middle of the night, when I'm not looking [fwishful thinking emoticon]

Pretty please Tech grin

Thank you! grin

phoenix Bashing the monitor does no good! Its the computer box itself you need to bash and you can bash that harder than you can the monitor. wink

Can I just ask - where do I find 'bookmark' to click on it?

There is a 'custimise' option in a green bar above and below an open thread. This gives you several options including bookmarks. I automatically hover over the right hand corner of the last post I have read and click on the blue block which appears, to save. Next time the thread is opened you will be taken to that exact position.

Bookmarks not working for me. I use Chrome as a browser. It used to be SO easy, you just clicked on the last name on the list in the thread and you were taken to that post hmm
