So mumsnet have recently changed the option to highlight both OP's and your own posts in a specific colour. They claim that only 8% of posters use this feature and hence it's unneeded.

I and some others disagree Grin So please if you would, can you answer the following questions for me? Either to protest the change or to support MNHQ, I don't mind, just interested in this 8%. Copy and paste your answer.

No discussion of the issue (if possible) - there are already two threads in Site Stuff about it. If you want to discuss it, here's one: Link

So firstly:
Do you use the highlight posts feature?

If yes
Yes, I tried it, but I didn't like it.
Yes, I use it on the desktop and mobile site but not the app.
Yes and I would like to keep it.

If no
No, I didn't know that you could do this.
Not interested in a highlighting option.
Only use the app and it's not an option on there.

Ta very much :)

Hi all, Thanks for the feedback.

We just wanted to point out on this thread that we aren't removing this feature at all, we are setting default colours for the highlight but not removing the ability.

The new app will have a similar feature too. We will be keeping an eye on this thread, so please do keep giving us your thoughts.

Hi all. Thank you for all your feedback.

Our Tech team are currently working on the colour issues - this will mean that your own posts and the OPs posts will be different colours again.

They will also be changing the colours so they will be more accessible for visually impaired users.

Thanks again everyone.
