I de regged after being hacked. I re registered and am starting out new, but I can't find the buttons to hide threads in active convos. Anyone know how to get it back please?

I'm on iPad on safari unsung the mobile site if that matters?

Somebody started a thread about this the other day but I can't remember the outcome. Grin

They've definitely been missing for a while. Maybe Jeffery has them?

I asked MNHQ A few days ago.
They said MNTech would look into it but that they had other things on their plate right now.

Yes. I don't think it's a high priority. Just a bit weird.

Open the thread you want to hide. Under the thick blue bar ( topics etc ) it says start / watch / flip / hide Hth

If you've re-regged then you should be able to use Customise with impunity because you'll be on Mumsnet New - and Customise should have a box to 'Put "hide" link on Active Conversations? Yes/No'.

Anyone on Classic, be warned that using Customise (ie changing and 'saving') may just switch you to New.

Thanks - mummy there is that option, but I like to not open some threads but just hide them from the title.

I've been into customise and can't see where that option is simurgh

The first time it's Happenstance, the second time it's Coincidence .......and this is the third time I've seen that screen. (Which is nothing like mine.) Time to ask a question I suspect.

following this thread, because i haven't got access to customise etc either

There doesn't seem to be an MNHQ appetite for talking about this particular issue I'm afraid.

TheBeautifulAndTheDamned · 29/08/2015 21:03

Agreed, Simurgh

Ages ago when the new-look site was launched, we lost the Hide Thread button as well. Seems like MNHQ just don't think it is useful / well-used.

Personally I am using MN a lot less than I used to because I can't be bothered to trawl through the same threads on Active all the time. I am used to hiding 70% of threads, leaving me with just the juicy ones.

Grrrrr.

Yeah I'm drifting away from this now. I can't log in on my mobile any more; the site freezes and often doesn't load... I think I'll be giving it all a break for a bit tbh.

I really liked the hide thread button and having de-regged/re-regged, am a bit miffed that it's gone. Why would they think it wasn't useful/well-used?

Can we have it back MNHQ?
