I want to always inc specail needs in active convos but I can't bear the endless threads selling any old tat that people find lying around, 2nd hand pottys and the like, I'm just not interested and it actually irritates me. Please can I have the option to not have it come up while still inc special needs. Please. Thank you.

LadyTophamHatt · 14/01/2007 15:18

Well, I joined in a short thread asking for it....so i didn't ask directly myself but backed up the person who did.

I'm ashamed to say I don't click include SN because of all the for sale crap that comes with it.

TeeCee · 14/01/2007 15:24

Sorry Soupie, not even slightly technical. What does that mean and how do I do it, and what will it do?

LTH - that's such a shame - I woonder how many others don't select SN's to avoid people selling off their belly button fluff?

Oh yes please, I know you can bookmark it but it would still be great to have it on the top of the page to refresh quickly.

Marina · 14/01/2007 20:38

Yes please to this, soupy's helpful link notwithstanding.

tamum · 14/01/2007 20:40

Yes please- same as emkana, I had saved the bookmark but it's helpful to have a direct link.

TeeCee · 14/01/2007 20:42

Yes soupys bookmark thing is great but I will forget to log on through favourites and I use 3 different computers so would be nice just to have the option at the top of the computer. Lots of people are getting annoyed with the huge amounts of threads in actives all with people selling stuff.

i asked a while ago for diffeenbt reasons to this and its been asked over and over i recall i think justine saying they were working onit

JustineMumsnet · 14/01/2007 23:32

Yes it's coming honest... be with you this week we hope .

Tech · 17/01/2007 02:29

We've changed the way the options at the top of the screen work. You can tick the boxes for excluding chat and buying/selling and including special needs then just click the link at the end. The site should remember which way you tick the boxes until you change them.

Regards,
Tech

sandcastles · 17/01/2007 02:47

Vey good, very good.

Thanks for putting 'active convos' back at the beginning tho, couldn't see it for a while at the end!

MrsJohnCusack · 17/01/2007 05:49

tigermoth · 17/01/2007 06:30
