Hi!

Me being me, I managed to hide the wrong thread first.

I have hidden the thread in Site stuff, about how to hide threads!

I did eventually manage to hids the thread I meant to hide.

My question now is, how do I unhide a thread I can no longer see?!

If you just want the instructions on how to do it perhaps some kind person might copy and paste them into this thread for you.

Would that be helpful?

fancythat nothing worked for me
i was deleting the games threads and accidently hid the Wordle thread I did everything to get it back followed various peoples instructions but I couldn’t and in desperation I emailed GQ who answered quickly, asked the problem, I told them and never heard another word
I only got back on when someone opened a new wordle thread when the other one got too full
So I ll say good luck with that one and I’ll watch with interest

Thanks!
At least it wasnt that important a thread.
I just really wanted to go on it and say thanks, that I had managed to hide the right thread eventually.

HOW TO HIDE THE GAMES
You can hide all the games if you don't want them. It takes time to hide them all but once you've done it you only have to go back every now and then to hide new ones.

Mobile site Go to Games/click on a thread/click on the red button on the right/click on hide this discussion/click on Games. The thread will have gone. Repeat for all the games.

Desktop site Scroll down to the bottom and click on 'mobile site' then you will be able to follow the above instructions. When you've finished go back to 'desktop site' at the bottom and the Games threads will have gone.
End

If you need more than this I could go back to the thread, but other posts contain screenshots and I don't think they will copy and paste

Thank you.

I did manage to do that. But also hid one I did not want to hide.
And it is that one I would like to unhide.

The thread I had hidden incorrectly, is now on trending, so I have managed to post on it.

Thank you both.

Thank you.

I did manage to do that. But also hid one I did not want to hide.
And it is that one I would like to unhide.

Wouldn’t it be easier to just ignore 🤷‍♀️

Ignore the one I wanted to hide in the first place?

But I have seen what happens[it is the im a celeb thread].
Grace left.
Personally I dont like tv spoilers. I wont be watching that particular episode for a day or two.
If I hadnt managed to hide that thread, I wouldsee who wins the final before I have seen the actual programme myself. And who leaves along the way.

So, does that mean that it is now unhidden for you?

I got the impression from BlueBelle's post that once you'd hidden it it was gone for ever from your list of posts.

fancythat Mon 27-Nov-23 14:35:29

It has gone from my I'm on.
It has gone from the Site Stuff menu.

But I happened to see it on Trending, and I was able to post on it.

I cant see it on Last Day either.
