Can I select inc SN's but NOT buying/selling, PLEASEEEEEE

[TeeCee]

I want to always inc specail needs in active convos but I can't bear the endless threads selling any old tat that people find lying around, 2nd hand pottys and the like, I'm just not interested and it actually irritates me. Please can I have the option to not have it come up while still inc special needs. Please. Thank you.

[hercules1]

me too

[MamazonAKAfatty]

second that desperate plea.

[LadyTophamHatt]

yes...yes...yes....I asked for this yonks ago.

[TeeCee]

Did you LadyTophamHatt, and nothing was done? Oh I can't bear it.

[LadyTophamHatt]

Well, I joined in a short thread asking for it....so i didn't ask directly myself but backed up the person who did.



I'm ashamed to say I don't click include SN because of all the for sale crap that comes with it.

[TeeCee]

Sorry Soupie, not even slightly technical. What does that mean and how do I do it, and what will it do?

LTH - that's such a shame - I woonder how many others don't select SN's to avoid people selling off their belly button fluff?

[SoupDragon]

Ok click here and then add the page to your internet favourites

[TeeCee]

No idea what I've just done soupie but thank you !

bumping for MN team

[emkana]

Oh yes please, I know you can bookmark it but it would still be great to have it on the top of the page to refresh quickly.

[Marina]

Yes please to this, soupy's helpful link notwithstanding.

[tamum]

Yes please- same as emkana, I had saved the bookmark but it's helpful to have a direct link.

[TeeCee]

Yes soupys bookmark thing is great but I will forget to log on through favourites and I use 3 different computers so would be nice just to have the option at the top of the computer. Lots of people are getting annoyed with the huge amounts of threads in actives all with people selling stuff.

[MerlinsBeard]

apparently tech is working on a way to customise active convo's

[TeeCee]

Wopeee, thanks for that MOM.

[MerlinsBeard]

i asked a while ago for diffeenbt reasons to this and its been asked over and over i recall i think justine saying they were working onit

[JustineMumsnet]

Yes it's coming honest... be with you this week we hope .

[Tech]

We've changed the way the options at the top of the screen work. You can tick the boxes for excluding chat and buying/selling and including special needs then just click the link at the end. The site should remember which way you tick the boxes until you change them.

Regards,
Tech
