OPs highlighted on green throughout the post - why do some people have this and not others?

GNHQ - this is very definitely a ‘thing’ on my iPhone, with my posts showing in pink and all of the OPs posts showing as green. Other posters don’t have this feature and say that they’ve been told that it doesn’t exist and can’t be provided. Well, I can assure you it does and it can! Can you look into this please?

Sara65 Tue 26-Nov-19 17:42:33

Mine is the same

Sara65 Tue 26-Nov-19 17:43:07

I’m in pink, you are in green

Greenfinch Tue 26-Nov-19 17:48:25

I am the same though I don't see any point in mine being in pink.

grandMattie Tue 26-Nov-19 17:51:52

I am pink, you are green, everyone else is white!

BlueBelle Tue 26-Nov-19 17:53:59

But do you all have all subsequent ‘original posters’ posts coloured, or just the one original one ???

BlueBelle Tue 26-Nov-19 17:55:22

SirChenjin can you add a post then I ll do a screenshot to show how it looks for me

BBbevan Tue 26-Nov-19 17:55:29

Original OP is green, but not throughout the thread. I am pink.

BlueBelle Tue 26-Nov-19 17:56:40

Exactly BBevan mine too

Sara65 Tue 26-Nov-19 17:58:23

For me OP is green throughout the thread

SirChenjin Tue 26-Nov-19 18:06:31

Bluebelle can you see this one as green?

SueDonim Tue 26-Nov-19 18:09:00

I'm on an iPad, in Mobile mode. The OP is green but none of the OP's further posts are green. My own posts are pink.

SirChenjin Tue 26-Nov-19 18:23:58

The O’s are green throughout the thread for me and mine are all pink

SirChenjin Tue 26-Nov-19 18:24:09

OP’s

grannyactivist Tue 26-Nov-19 18:27:51

Original post is green, subsequent ones in white and my own are pink. This is the same on iPad, iPhone and laptop.

Calendargirl Tue 26-Nov-19 19:50:16

My own are mostly pink, but sometimes come up white.

Marydoll Tue 26-Nov-19 19:54:13

OP is green and subsequents post by OP are white, mine are always pink.
This is on phone, tablet and PC. No difference.

dizzyblonde Tue 26-Nov-19 20:05:18

This is what your subsequent post looks like for me. Your original is in green.

dizzyblonde Tue 26-Nov-19 20:05:51

This is safari on iPhone.

oldgimmer1 Tue 26-Nov-19 20:40:36

It's the same on mine. Not an iPhone. I have to be logged in though, to see myself in pink.

I think it's something to do with the settings.

You can alter them, I think, in desktop mode.

Grannybags Tue 26-Nov-19 21:13:45

Original OP is in green and I'm pink but if OP makes any other comment it is white. I would love it to show up in green as it's nice to know when the original OP comes back.

Come on GNHQ help us out here!

Testing

rosecarmel Tue 26-Nov-19 21:28:04

I'm on a fire tablet- SirChenjin, your OP is green but the rest of your posts are white like everyone else- I'm pink- I'm using the Desktop site-

rosecarmel Tue 26-Nov-19 21:29:21

When logged out my posts are white too-

SirChenjin Tue 26-Nov-19 21:37:57

Why so many variations?! We demand answers GNHQ! grin

Just as an aside - on MN you can hide entire thread topics e.g. if you don’t want to see any of the News and Politics threads (v tempting...) you can elect to hide them all. Given that this is MN’s sister (mother?) site and I presume it uses the same platform, why can’t we do that too?
