Hello all
A few days ago I hid the 'Royal Chat' thread, and the 'Lilibet' thread.

Yesterday I un-hid them and posted on the former, in fact I have just posted on it.

However - I can't see it in the Active list, or in the Trending list confused

They seem to have hidden themselves, but they aren't on my Hidden Thread list either!

Can everyone else see them?
Can you please comment below to say if you can / cannot see the two Royal threads mentioned?
Thank you!

It’ll show up on the I’m On button once you’ve posted on it, which obviously you have.

As they say in NetMums,
'I'm fumin', babe!'

FannyCornforth Sun 13-Jun-21 09:52:30

ExD, no, I'm afraid that you can't hide threads on the 'normal' site

I don't have a mobile (just a pay as you go which has no internet connection) I use a tablet.
There's no 'little V anywhere). Why are things different on different devices?

In active?

Lucca Sun 13-Jun-21 09:29:42

I can see it

FannyCornforth Sun 13-Jun-21 09:29:21

Yes, I know! No worries! (Apart from my thread being hidden...) ?

FannyCornforth Sun 13-Jun-21 09:28:11

Because it's my thread and I've just posted on it!!?

Lucca Sun 13-Jun-21 09:27:03

JOKING ! Before I get sent to the GN tower.

Sonia you can't hide whole sub-forums though

Hi - just dropping in to say that you're welcome to report any games threads that aren't in the Games section - and we'll move them over. This will enable you to hide Games. flowers

You can always find threads you’re interested in by clicking on I’m on. It does mean you have to make a comment though, even if it’s a quite innocuous post.

fanny if you want to hide the games (or any thread) from your timeline on the mobile site you have to change over to desktop then do the rigmarole of little arrows and hide discussion then you have to change back to mobile site again

It seems those on mobile can only make these changes by changing to desktop AND
those on desktop have to go to mobile etc etc
It’s nonsense
And they come back anyway it’s a very clumsy way and I m sure there are more up to date technologies to hide a thread from your time.one Do you have to go through all that rigmarole on Mumsnet

Callistemon grin
You need to get used to the mobile site!

Callistemon Thu 10-Jun-21 09:50:55

Oh, they're back! They must have realised I'm here and need a new kettle, a rucksack and an epilator.

Not.

Callistemon Thu 10-Jun-21 09:46:51

Dont mention the ads mokryna.

No matter what I did, they keep coming back although not at the moment.
The result of my attempts was to mess up my email account completely.

Motto: don't meddle with technology
Technology will always have the upper hand!

FannyCornforth Thu 10-Jun-21 09:23:51

I don't know about that Mokryna
I know that others use something called adblock, but I can't get it to work

mokryna Thu 10-Jun-21 09:21:07

What do you do with all the ads? I delete them but their cousins pop up.

FannyCornforth Thu 10-Jun-21 09:16:37

Thanks B9, that's reassuring - I like the 'just one of those things' reply!
Much more candid!

B9exchange Thu 10-Jun-21 09:10:24

Just as a comment, my thread on the GP records data grab didn't appear in trending for a while, no matter who posted on it. I did contact GN and they came back and said it was probably just one of those things, and it did start reappearing after half a day. Technology will always have the upper hand grin

*It's clunky and frustrating to have to switch to the mobile site to do all that*
BUT
If you use the mobile site you have to do all the clunky stuff but in reverse

Ooh, I really don't understand what you mean BlueBelle
I rarely use the non- mobile site
