Can I ‘unbookmark’?

9 replies

Itschristmasimallowedwine · 15/12/2019 19:21

When I’m on a thread and close the adverts, I, 9 times out of 10, accidentally press the bookmark button.

I don’t like to bookmark but I can’t unbookmark. Is there anyway to do this?

Hi there OP,
Can we ask if you're on our app or browser version of our site? If you're on our app are you using our IoS or Android version?

Thanks @Itschristmasimallowedwine for that. When you say your bookmarks, do you mean Threads I'm watching? On this page, you have the option to remove threads - you need to tick the little box beside the thread, and then go to the drop down and select 'remove'.

We'd really like to see a screengrab of what you're seeing when you say you accidentally click the wrong button - this would be really helpful for our tech team to see how it's displaying for you. If you can upload it here, that would be great. Or email it into [email protected]

Let us know if you need more help!

Hi OP, will pass this on. Just one more question - are you on a mobile using the site?
Thanks

Huge apologies for the delay in responding here.

For now, the bookmark function on the mobile site doesn't toggle on and off - though we've taken all of your feedback on board and are looking into this for the future.

As Chemenger has said, if you accidentally bookmark a post within a thread, that bookmark will be removed if you subsequently bookmark any other post, including the Opening Post.

Just for the record, threads on which you've bookmarked a post aren't automatically saved in your Watch list. To Watch a thread, click on the blue circle with the white arrow at the top of a thread and then click on 'Watch this thread'. So if you've accidentally bookmarked a post and do want to return to the thread, you'd have to scroll up to the top in order to Watch the thread, so at that stage you could also re-bookmark the opening post.

Sorry again if this isn't the answer you were hoping for.

If anyone's not yet tried the app, please give it a go - the app does allow you to toggle on and off a bookmarked post.

[quote peachypetite]@JoMumsnet I’ve tried what you suggested and it didn’t work. How can I remove it from “I’m on”?[/quote]

Hello, do you want to hide the thread?

Hi @LetTheBirdsSing just to let you know that there aren't any plans to change this at the moment, but we're certainly keen to hear your comments for any future changes.

All feedback is really appreciated, and will be taken on board. Flowers
