On the desktop site.

The option to show who the thread was started by and when is still showing. But selecting "Yes" (or indeed "No") for this option does not stay when you click save.

Just letting it be known in case it had not been mentioned.

Glad it's all sorted Smile

Yes - remind Tech that if there's a spare 5 minutes, we could do with a G&T emoticon. Tall with a slice of lemon. Grin

Thank you Flowers

Or Gin if you prefer Smile

SetPhasersTaeMalkie · 27/08/2014 21:46

Thank you for fixing it. Back to normal again.

BeCool · 27/08/2014 21:38

restated now - yay!!!

gertiegusset · 27/08/2014 21:10

Another phew from me.
Thanks

cozietoesie · 27/08/2014 20:11

Phew. (Although I had to go into Customise and restate my wishes.)

Thanks MNHQ and Tech.

PrincessFiorimonde · 27/08/2014 19:56

Ah, it's fine now. Thanks.

I'm guessing that there's been some big site overhaul implemented and that Thread Started By was a forgotten casualty (or in corporation-speak 'An unintended consequence of development' Grin) - this has been going on for so long that it's clearly not susceptible to a quick tweak even when it's a major irritant to site users.

Hi everyone, really sorry to hear this still isn't working. We're still working on it and it should be fixed shortly!

Skina · 27/08/2014 15:55

Driving me nuts. Thread starters I actively swerve are now akin to playing Russian Roulette with my sanity. This is not a Good Thing.

PrincessFiorimonde · 27/08/2014 15:52

Not working for me either (Google Chrome).

DramaAlpaca · 27/08/2014 15:22

It still isn't working.

BeCool · 27/08/2014 14:07

ah so happy to see this thread as
A) I am not mad;
B) it is driving me crazy too as nothing looks 'right' anymore; and
C) I don't need to start a thread myself.

cozietoesie · 27/08/2014 14:02

Lunchtime ?

UptheChimney · 27/08/2014 13:42

Still not working for me ...

cozietoesie · 27/08/2014 13:04

Thanks - it's driving me daft.

gertiegusset · 27/08/2014 12:38

Thankyou.

Hi everyone,

We'll run over to tech and get it fixed ASAP.

gertiegusset · 26/08/2014 16:12

What's going on, can't this be fixed?

Oh come on MNHQ! This is driving me nuts. I keep clicking on thread titles thinking "surely [well liked and respected regular poster] would never have posted a thread called that!", and sure enough - they haven't, it's someone else altogether but the "started by"function is buggered. I may have to go and do some work if this carries on.

WhereBeThatBlackbirdTo · 25/08/2014 09:58

Another one coming to complain about this only to find I've been beaten to it, many many times.

gertiegusset · 25/08/2014 09:53
Sad
cozietoesie · 25/08/2014 08:53

Is Tech going to be working on this today? (Hangover permitting I guess.) It's been 4 or 5 days now.
