Place marking

Shamelessly

Believeitornot · 15/09/2018 21:31

I don’t click watch threads because the threads I also post in end up in my watched list (why da fuck mumsnet?!) so the list is too long.

LucyMorningStar · 15/09/2018 21:32

Three points arranged vertically on the right of each poster's name - click there and choose 'bookmark'. Next time you go into the thread it'll start from there.

HoleyCoMoley · 15/09/2018 21:34

Thanks, found it, will try it now.

Batteriesallgone · 15/09/2018 21:37

Don’t think bookmark is an option on phones.

I placemark.

I try not to be too shameless and say something (half) relevant but a lot of time it’s just a disguised placemark Blush

Shamelessly placemarking 😁

I can bookmark on my phone.

SugarGrill · 15/09/2018 21:51

I can bookmark on my phone. But threads I'm on and watching are the same, so lots get lost. But I use the bookmark and watch

Believeitornot · 15/09/2018 22:36

No bookmark option on my phone

GimmeBread · 15/09/2018 22:39

You need to slide to the left the post you want to bookmark and you'll find it.

And it's on so hilarious on threads like these when people do exactly what's being complained about...

Bookmarking and watching is very easy on any device. Give it a try...

PlatypusPie · 16/09/2018 09:06

Ooh, I’ve just learnt how to bookmark ! - wasn’t a shameless or ashamed placemarker before but that is so helpful for interesting threads that I hadn’t commented on, but wished to come back to.

Ta, all.

ushuaiamonamour · 16/09/2018 09:39

I'm on laptop but still, I don't see the row of stars next to usernames and doing things that might be called 'sliding to the left' don't show me them either. Could someone tell me what no doubt obvious thing I'm missing? Cheers.

Batteriesallgone · 16/09/2018 09:50

Can’t slide posts... still can’t find the bookmark option

Vitalogy · 16/09/2018 09:57

Because I'm on is easier.

Batteriesallgone · 16/09/2018 10:01

Also, I don’t know what it’s like nowadays, but I’ve been here - well, not since it was all fields exactly, but at least since it was brown belt. Four name changes and I don’t name change very often. And the ‘watching’ function has historically been glitchy as fuck, especially on phones. Once you’ve been stung by it a few times you just placemark instead coz it works!

greathat · 16/09/2018 10:15

On your phone at the top of ththread where the blue title is. Swipe that to the left

ushuaiamonamour · 16/09/2018 10:50

greathat Don't want to be difficult but I've tried swiping (black) thread title & everything in blue at top to the left with no result. Am on laptop, so perhaps that's why nothing's happening?

LucyMorningStar · 16/09/2018 11:46

On the phone app - see three vertical dots on the right? That's where bookmark option is.

I always thought it was because users were ignorant of the bookmark and watch function.

Believeitornot · 16/09/2018 11:53

I don’t use the MN app - I use the mobile website. There’s no bookmark option on the mobile website.

I gave up on the app years ago as it was too buggy! But tempted to try again
