I know it means I have an unread message somewhere, but I have just trawled through them all (the many thousands Wink) and I can't find it!

I don't like the red dot being there all the time! So what can I doooooo???

Hi, We've made a small change to PMs so that you can look at unread-only PMs. So if you have a red dot and can't see the unread message easily, change the dropdown at the top of the list (next to the word Inbox) from "All messages" to "Unread only" and you should be able to see just the messages you haven't already read.

I wish I had a red dot

I have a red dot, I haven't many PMs. I'm certain they were all read.

It's been put there by Tech to torment you, obviously, Bib.

Flightty · 23/03/2012 14:26

LOL

bibbityisaporker · 22/03/2012 21:57

Didn't you get that PM before, bibbity? You are so out of the loop.

bibbityisaporker · 22/03/2012 20:40

Nah, you're alright Mary. All this AMAZING gossip is strictly entre-nous Wink.

@bibbityisaporker

Yep! got them both.

But, Mary, how could you say they were boring? What with one being a comprehensive list of all the name changes of all mumsnetters ever in the whole history of Mumsnet.

And the second being a cut & paste job of what they were saying over on modlies on the night it all kicked off!

Oh happy readings for me Grin.

Hmm Grin

Hello Tech! Any luck with finding my unread message. I have been through them all again and can't find it!

I know someone else who has this issue and it's been red-dot for months. So I'm waiting for Tech to be all whizzy and sort it.

Hecate I shall PM you NOW.

Tech · 22/03/2012 09:31

Hello Bibbity, I'll have a look for your unread message.

The problem where your most recent message wasn't visible should be fixed now - it was only there for a few minutes last week, so I don't think it's that. Will report back....

bibbityisaporker · 21/03/2012 20:34

Hello ... hello ... ???

I know you've had a slightly busy few days hq, but do you know who I am? I've been here nearly 6 years you know!

Blush... eeuuuuh... I might have to admit that I never received a PM, nor sent one... I am not quite sure how you would go about it either.

JustHecate · 21/03/2012 18:10

pm me and I'll apologise.

I WILL get my pm count up into the thousands Grin

BlindRatDesPaquerettes · 21/03/2012 18:08

That was a bit harsh. Sad

JustHecate · 21/03/2012 18:00

I shall poke you firmly in the eye.
