Where has it gone?

Damn, we can't seem to find the page you were looking for. Sorry about that - we'll fix it as soon as we can. In the meantime, try these options:

Maryz - how do you see threads on topics you've hidden in active convos?

Isn't the point that they don't appear there?

I'd think that most posters don't want to see those topics anywhere so not having them in the last 15mins etc seems a fair price to pay for a quicker site overall

Hi all,

We're really sorry for the back and forth on this.

Tech noticed that TIO, TIW and TIS were starting to take a significant toll on the sites load times and to rectify this they needed to make some changes to functionality. They limited the amount of threads that will appear on these list to 20 with a show more button displaying 50, now its set to display 50 with the show more showing 100.

They spotted that the threads that weren't appearing were actually hidden topics. We feel that if someone has hidden a topic, they don’t want it to appear anywhere at all, so we’re going to keep this as it is. You can un-hide a topic at any time by adding it to your inclusion list here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/topic-choice'

The TIO/TIW/TIS/Last X/Unanswered pages are now a lot more efficient and consistent in the way they work, hence the hidden topics being applied across the board. Tech are going to take a look at the apps next to make sure they also have this consistency and they are looking to increase some of the limits for the Last X pages due to user feedback.

We hope that clarifies things a bit. Flowers

Ah, I found the page: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/site_stuff/1248206-How-to-hide-certain-topics

I had 'Radio Addicts' as an excluded topic, although I don't recall excluding it. Now my 'lost' thread appears in TIO and TIW. Mystery solved!

impostersyndrome · 23/08/2017 06:02

How do you find hidden topics? I've checked hidden threads, but no idea about where to check on topics.

Thanks

SandyDenny · 22/08/2017 22:41

A thread I posted on about 10 minutes ago is no longer showing in my TIO, I think it may have been deleted but I'd expect to see the deletion message. Has that changed too?

OhYouBadBadKitten · 22/08/2017 22:26

I definitely didn't hide FE, but it turns out that somehow it became hidden. It vanished from my TIO when tech did their fiddling and it turns out that umpteen topics had been hidden. I could only discover this on my pc, on my ipad, in safari the hidden topics were invisible, just asterisks where they should have been.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 22/08/2017 22:04

I defininitely haven't hidden FE

Have you actually physically checked the settings? I only ask because I was certain that I hadn't hidden feminism, but it was in my hidden list.

toffee1000 · 22/08/2017 22:01

Thing is, though, posts I'd made in MNers with SN used to show up in TIO. Until around two weeks ago. Has this suddenly changed??

impostersyndrome · 22/08/2017 20:39

I still can't get it to remember that I've posted and watching a Radio Addicts thread. Is anyone looking at this?

BertieBotts · 22/08/2017 20:34

But Daniel, hidden topics WEREN'T excluded from TIO before. They honestly, definitely, 100% weren't. Hidden threads have been for a long time, but never hidden topics.

Plus, as mentioned, some topics - MNers with SN, and OTBT being the ones I am aware of, these cannot be unhidden to appear in Active which means that they also won't appear in TIO.

I don't like getting loads of emails so I'm not signed up to email alerts which means that I now can't follow that support thread at all which given it's a support thread for ADHD is rather ironic because it means I'm extremely unlikely to remember to go and check the section!

Lastly, if I'm going to have to unhide all my hidden topics from Active are there any plans for another way to view reduced topic versions of active, like letting users pick a list of "Favourite topics" to just view active threads from those specifically?

toffee1000 · 22/08/2017 19:49

I post in Mumsnetters with SN sometimes, just did in fact, and it's not showing up in Threads I'm On. Weird. I still get emails when someone's posted on that thread though, which I suppose is useful in that situation.

flowery · 22/08/2017 17:45

None of the threads I am on in Employment are showing on Threads I'm On, although AIBU/other ones are. So tiresome.

greengoose · 19/08/2017 23:23

So, 'threads I started' doesn't show anything that isn't recent anymore? Is it not possible to list an amount, rather than have them time limited? I hardly ever start a thread, but I'd like access to read back the ones I have started... any chance of changing this? (I imagine others who have started emotionally significant threads also like to look back on them and know they are 'safe').

TheDrsDocMartens · 19/08/2017 21:30

Mobile site slow here.

Willow2017 · 19/08/2017 20:56

Still having the same problem on the phone (on desktop site)
'Watched' threads etc dont appear until you scroll down past all the adverts at the side of the site and are all scrunched up to one side.
But threads you click on come up normally.

CazzieCatsRock · 19/08/2017 15:19

So sorry for everyone still having problems. Thankfully, mine all resolved. But is it just me or since these tech probs, the mobile site (not app) is painfully slow now??

OhYouBadBadKitten · 19/08/2017 08:48

ok - I started a new thread in Further Education. I can't see it in TIS, watching or TIO.
I started a thread in site stuff, I can see it in all three places. I defininitely haven't hidden FE.

Stillwaitingforsummer · 18/08/2017 21:55

I'm not seeing all of my tio.

TheDrsDocMartens · 18/08/2017 17:40

Still having problems with that thread ^

We used to be able to have threads in TIO/TIW even with topics hidden. I know HQ isn't bothered about long term posters but this is quite a big thing in the way I use the site. I don't want every topic in active but do dip into other topics occasionally and may be on long threads from them.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 18/08/2017 17:21

Forgot to say, I've tried to add that thread to watching and it won't add.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 18/08/2017 17:21

I have only one thread hidden, no topics, yet lots of us don't seem to have www.mumsnet.com/Talk/further_education/2932214-Parents-of-Year-12s-exam-time-again-oh-no?watched=1&msgid=71265727#71265727 on our TIO even though we've been posting today. Desktop site, on all machines.
Fortunately we are coming to the end of the thread. I hope our new one works ok.

diddl · 18/08/2017 17:16

Yes they are, thank you. Def hadn't hidden AIBU though.

MNHQ
danielbtech · 18/08/2017 17:14

diddl are threads from that topic appearing for you now in TIO and TIW?

diddl · 18/08/2017 17:03

Hidden topics???

As far as I'm aware I hadn't hidden anything & lo & behold there is AIBU under "excluded".

How did that happen?
