New feature - sensitive images

Hi all,

We recently released a new feature on our post editor, which enables you to mark images as 'sensitive' when uploading them to your posts.

When you choose to mark an image as sensitive, it will be hidden from other users until they click on it. This ensures that the image is not immediately visible to everyone who views your posts, giving you more control over the content that you share.

We know for example that some health-related imagery may be unsettling for some users, and we hope that this new sensitive flag feature will provide users with greater control over what they see when clicking into threads.

To mark an image as sensitive, simply select the option when uploading your image. We may also mark images as sensitive based on feedback from other users.

We hope that this new feature will enhance your experience on Mumsnet and help to create a more supportive community.

If you have any feedback then please let us know! Thanks!

It’s a good development, and I think will be really useful.

But Hope - that image is pretty terrifying! What is that thing on the left?? 😱

I have seen a few 'sensitive' images and thought they were auto-done (insert correct technical term) thanks for explaining and HAHAHAHAH at the image you chose, marvellously old skool Grin
