How do I private message someone?

Find them on a thread and where it says "message poster" on the right hand side of their post, click on that and it will bring a PM box up. Not all MNers accept them though, there is a facility to block PMs in settings.

The right hand side that says Add message | Report | Message Poster

Ok, I'm not getting that. My only options are " bookmark, report or share ". Is this because I'm using my phone and need to use my computer?

I'm on an iPad on the mobile site. I should be getting the same thing as you, unless you are using the app and things are different there? I don't use the app.

This is my screen...

I'm talking about these options on each post...

Can you see those? If not, maybe you do need to use the mobile or desktop site to PM.

I'm on my mobile. If I click the three dots on your post I get this.

If you get the options Mint gets, then just click PM on the poster you want to message.

I'm on the app. I guess that would explain it then? There are no dots or other options. I'll have a look on my computer.

Yes, the app doesn't have an option, or not one I can see....

Hi dizzyajc,

Which app are you using, ios or android?
