Just off to hide a few threads!

Sorry, we don't. Am delirious from lack of sleep. Of course, we meant less easy to hide threads by accident.

RustyBear · 20/03/2012 10:39

Oh, it's the right size now.

Just one of those strange things computers do from time to time....

HJisgoingtogoBOOM · 20/03/2012 11:12

I want tick boxes to hide multiple threads at once

BolderesHolderesMalHumor · 20/03/2012 12:43

I love the new facility. I didn't use the old hide much because you would be quizzed back to the top of Active Convos and have to scan the thread titles again. This facility will improve my MNing experience no end. Smile

Zombie doesn't have ickle "-" signs nor does she have "Manage hidden threads".

Zombie uses Mumsnet New on a laptop.

Zombie would hate to think MN are discriminating against Zombie.

BolderesHolderesMalHumor · 20/03/2012 12:51

Whizzed not quizzed

Have hidden so much, there's not much of MN left. Confused

ifyousayso · 20/03/2012 16:23

How do you hide whole topics again? Please?

ifyousayso · 20/03/2012 16:24

Do you have to be in MN New to be hiding?

BolderesHolderesMalHumor · 20/03/2012 16:26

ifyousayso - Click on customise and scroll down to the bottom for topic hiding. My life is happier since I lost camping. Not sure if have to be in MN new or not.

ifyousayso · 20/03/2012 16:27

Ta.

May come back to you if I fail.

ifyousayso · 20/03/2012 16:32

Thanks - had to scroll down several miles. (Not that I'm whinging, the service on here is perfect, can't be faulted.)

BolderesHolderesMalHumor · 20/03/2012 16:37

What have you hidden? Grin

OP posts:
ifyousayso · 20/03/2012 16:43

Well, it's a blardy revelation. I've hidden AIBU and it's effectively a Hide Poster option. For moi.

IamtheZombie · 20/03/2012 19:14

Zombie has found them. She didn't know they needed to be turned on in Customise.

Blush Blush

CuttedUpPear · 20/03/2012 21:12

I can't find where customise is even to start with! I have tried, honest, even managed to remember password and logged in all proper like, still don't know how to do it.

Please someone help me, I have asked further upthread but to no avail. I need STEP by STEP idiot proof instructions.

IamtheZombie · 20/03/2012 21:35

CuttedUpPear, look at the very top of this page. Customise is the first option beside "Talk" which is underneath "Mumsnet Talk" (which is in big letters).

ifyousayso · 20/03/2012 21:50

V glad to see others have struggled to customise by hiding just as much as I have. Grin

CuttedUpPear · 20/03/2012 22:34

I knew that Blush

But there is still a great void on the right hand side of the page with no lovely minus buttons in it at all.

Sad
CuttedUpPear · 20/03/2012 22:35

And I am in New.

IamtheZombie · 20/03/2012 22:39

OK. When you're in Customise, scroll down until you find this:

Put "hide" link on Active Conversations? (hide selected threads from Talk):

It needs to say "Yes" beside that. Does it?

If not, change to "Yes", save and exit. Zombie don't think she needed to log out and back in for it to take effect.

TheBestThingsInLifeAreFree · 20/03/2012 23:37

Fabulous! You have made my day MNHQ. I asked for this in a recent thread, so thank you.

MmeLindor. · 21/03/2012 00:06

Is it possible that the HIDE TOPICS thing has been reset though? I suddenly have pushchairs in my timeline, and I am pretty sure that I had hidden that topic.

Otherwise love the new button and am happily zapping everything that moves.
