Can anyone help me find the customise option. I want to hide the whole AM A topic.

I have searched and all advice says use the desktop site and press customise option in Talk. I cannot find this. I am sure there used to be options for watch thread, hide thread at the top of the page, but not now.

I can hide an individual thread but need to hide the topic.

It's in the drop down arrow by Talk

Artus · 11/07/2018 06:54

Not for me I'm afraid. I have threads I'm on, and threads I have started, but not customise

Oh, they have added a new drop down arrow, how confusing. I mean the one below that which you have to actually click on, on the large blue-on-white Talk logo, not the white-on-blue one.

What Bertie said in her second post. The drop down arrow is in the circle just to the right of the word Talk. Click on Customise and you'll get this :

www.mumsnet.com/Talk?call=Preferences

Thanks for the advice. I have given up. I can't even tell if I am on the desktop or mobile site anymore, the toggle at the bottom of the screen to change from mobile to desktop has disappeared. I've clicked every button I can see and now get sent straight back to Active convos.

I'll just have to ignore the old fashioned way!

Seems a retrograde step for Mumsnet though, once the Talk app is installed the main site and all it advertising has disappeared as far as I am concerned.

Thank you soooo much PanPanPing. Had the same issue as Artus and have been trying to hide the AMA topic for days!

PanPanPanPing · 11/07/2018 15:29

It's a pleasure, gussie!

Artus, what device are you using?

AnyaMumsnet · 11/07/2018 17:01

Hi there Artus,

We're so sorry about this, we're not sure what's going on here.

Could you please send us a screenshot, either uploaded on to this thread or to [email protected]?

We'd love to get this sorted for you.

Artus · 11/07/2018 17:32

HI

A screenshot. No doubt I am missing something obvious. I am on a Samsung Galaxy tablet.

Incidentally I can't get from the Talk app to the Mumsnet homepage either directly or by putting mumsnet into Google. All links take me back to the talk app. The only way is to type the web page into the search bar www.Mumsnet. com

Apparently the App is massively glitchy - according to other threads in Site Stuff.

Can you get yourself back onto MN another way?

Artus · 11/07/2018 22:19

I found it! Managed to get to homepage from policies and support, then the toggle to desktop had reappeared.
