AIBU to ask ..How do you hide topics?

[MintyChapsticks]

I'm really struggling to do it. Just not easy to spot at all. Could any kind soul talk me through it or point me in the right direction?

I've honestly read enough coronavirus doom and gloom to last a lifetime and some posters just get worse and worse

If you look along the top of the thread you will see a "hide this thread" option. Next to flip this thread.

do you have to hide threads individually? i'd like to hide whole topics too, but not worked out how.

I know how to hide a thread - I want to hide an entire topic . And that's not so simple

bump

someone must know...

This has been asked before and @mnhq were able to explain - if you post on site stuff they might be able to advise!

aha! found it, ta :)

i clearly last saw that page about 15 years ago, judging by what i was already ignoring :D

Thanks - I must try this later on normal site. There are some topics that I would rather not see & sometimes feels like there is enormous numbers of posts in that topic on active discussion

Oops, sorry - I'm not sure how to do that.

Still can't do it , despite following the link and being on the desktop. Why is this so difficult?
