To ask if you can still highlight OP’s posts?

Just realised there isn’t a rash of people posting and disappearing recently as I thought. The OP’s posts are no longer showing in a different colour

Gone in to set it again and the option has gone. Anyone else found this happening?

They’re still highlighted for me. On my iPad I have a drop down arrow next to Talk at the top, and in there I can select what colour the OP’s posts are highlighted in. Are you logged in?

lyralalala · 22/04/2020 14:53

Yeah I’m logged in. Only the first post is green. The rest are all white

In the customise box it doesn’t have the option for highlighting them.

Weird

Yes I have it set green for OPs posts and pink for my own posts. Hasn’t changed

JohnFinlaysNewTeeth · 22/04/2020 14:59

Yes. Green OP, Purple / Pink my own (whatever the default is). If you get this moved to site stuff @MNHQ might help.

Yours are all green for me OP.
Testing if mine are pink.....

TaTuirseOrm · 22/04/2020 15:04

Yep mine are pink.

Still green for me too. Have you tried logging out and then back in again to see if that works, or brings back the option?

KoalasandRabbit · 22/04/2020 15:13

No fine with me - has the OP name changed after first post?

MintCassis · 22/04/2020 15:17

I’d noticed this too, only the first post is green. This is the first thread I’ve read the OP is green throughout again. I am logged in and haven’t changed any settings.

I've never been able to work out how to highlight op's posts and have no option for this from the drop down arrow next to Talk! I use website rather than app - is this an app thing?

BuffaloCauliflower · 22/04/2020 16:13

I actually can’t remember how I did it, someone put up guidance ages ago and I set it then

BuffaloCauliflower · 22/04/2020 16:14

@LaPoesieEstDansLaRue I only use it on web browser not the app so no it’s not an app thing

No fine with me - has the OP name changed after first post?

Only if it's happened on every thread. That was my initial assumption, but it's every thread.

@LaPoesieEstDansLaRue There is a little circle next to where it says Talk. Click on that and then click customise and it should be an option

I'm going in via laptop and no issues but noticing things are disappearing like on advanced search - search by name.

LaPoesieEstDansLaRue · 22/04/2020 17:22

This is all I see when I click on the arrow next to Talk. Can't see anything to do with highlighting OP's posts. It's a mystery!

Sorry, should have said screenshots above are what I see when I click on the Customise option.

BuffaloCauliflower · 22/04/2020 17:46

It’s something you set in your settings, not in each individual thread/post
