Have I missed it or if this a good idea that should be taken on board by MN?

I get very frustrated when I have replied to and OP and then I go back to see if their are any replies to my reply.

if 20 people have replied since i have to search through every new page to find my old answer to see if anyone wrote to me after.

could MN not automatically send you back to your last reply so you can read from that point onwards rather than page 1. I know some will say remember what page you replied on but I have a memory like a sieve.

or at least they could highlight my reply or my page i replied on so i can jump straight back there.

Does this already exist and im very thick (highly likely) or is this a very good idea and the powers that be should take note!

mistressploppy · 14/02/2011 12:54

Float over the post and the 'bookmark' thingy appears on the right

FooffyShmoofer · 14/02/2011 12:54

There is a new facility under customise where you can highlight all your posts. I am currently a lovely lavender.

You can also highlight your own posts so they are easier to see - go to Customise

mistressploppy · 14/02/2011 12:55

Hover your arrow near the top of a post and a little bookmark button appears - just click it (or if on a touch screen device press the posters name and the bookmark button will appear then).

TrinityMotherOfRhinos · 14/02/2011 12:57

JamieLeeCurtis · 14/02/2011 12:57

BuzzLiteBeer · 14/02/2011 13:04

you have to swicth on bookmarks in customise, but its much easier to highlight your own posts in marvellous technicolour!

JamieLeeCurtis · 14/02/2011 13:05

Thanks Buzz

TrinityMotherOfRhinos · 14/02/2011 13:07

FooffyShmoofer · 14/02/2011 13:08

Highlight your own posts in glorious technicolour then when you read through you feel like your opinion is the most importantGrin

Bookmark? Whateva!

TrinityMotherOfRhinos · 14/02/2011 13:08

wow the bookmark thing is amzing though, I may just have to get used to the mumsnet new

JamieLeeCurtis · 14/02/2011 13:09

The only thing with highlighting, is that in my mind I kind of assume it's highlighted to everyone else, and then I wonder why everyone has ignored my witticisms

FooffyShmoofer · 14/02/2011 13:12

My witticisms are summarily ignored anyway Sad so as long as I think I'm witty/funny/ intelligent

vanimal · 14/02/2011 13:13

Nor me...

JamieLeeCurtis · 14/02/2011 13:13

You are witty , you are
