If you click on a thread and it's really long

Can we have a button to just see OPs posts?

Hi OP

Thanks so much for the feedback - we'll pass it over to our development team.

I second this request. If it's a 34-pager or similar, it would be good to be able to see only the OP updates.

And how do you jump pages ? Or do you have to scroll through each one ? If I come back to a long thread it takes ages to load each page to get back to where I was ! Am I missing something and being a bit thick ?

Good idea! That would be a big help and shut up the #rtft brigade - not everyone has time for that!

We've been asking for this for years and it's always been a no.

Would be great if it can be done.

Thank you MumsnetHQ.

Hi all,

This is still on our radar. We'll keep bringing it up.

Use the "bookmark" button on the last post you read.
When you go back to the thread it will take you straight to where you left off.

Brilliant ! Thanks so much for that. Didn't have a clue !

And don't view as pages, set it to show all posts on one page with the bookmark and it doesn't take any time at all

@LilyMumsnet unless I've dreamt it wasn't there a thread a few days ago about some posters being selected to test this feature, it does exist but isn't available to everyone yet

Hi Again coconuttelegraph,

We'll double check and see if you're right and whether we're losing our marbles here at HQ!

@flissmumsnet, it could be me losing mine but I'm sure I remember reading a thread where some posters were trailling the read OP only function.

I don't know if I can remember anything other than that so don't think I can search for it

Found it

I really really want this, I've been asking for a good ten years.
