How do I bookmark within a thread

[lexloofah]

I am watching some long and fast moving threads, how do I bookmark my latest read place?

I searched some other posts on the topic, saw references to swipe left, purple header but can’t see that

Am on website, not app, on iPad and iPhone

Thnx

Hi @lexloofah,

Just checking - when you say you're on the website, do you mean you're using the desktop site or the mobile version?

If you hover your cursor in the bottom right of the message (just below the last line of text) you should get a little box with "bookmark". Just click this.

@Jo Mumsnet I am On safari on an iPad so Guess that is mobile, thanks crapette but no cursor on iPad so not sure how to hover, hoping there is another way

Weird. I just tried on my iPhone without app and I can't see it either.

On Ipad though the app is much much faster and its there on that.

Hiya @lexloofah.
When you look on the bottom right of each individual post on the thread, you should see a little symbol with the word 'Bookmark' next to it - you should then be able to just tap this.
Does that work?
Fingers crossed...

Hi KimMumsnet I have downloaded the app but still can't see it, sorry probably right in my face, screen shot of my view, what am I missing? Thank you

Try swiping left and an option to book mark should come up

Ah, yes swiping is what I was missing thank you marcopront, not immediately obvious so not feeling too silly, thanks all

Sorry to jump on this. Once you’ve bookmarked the last comment you’ve read, where do you go to get back to it?

@ChocolateEmergency you still need to be on the thread or watching it and then access it via those lists. There is not a separate bookmark list. Or you need to search and find it.

That's right, thanks @moobar

So, @ChocolateEmergency, the way to 'Watch' a thread if you're using the app (and have swiped left to bookmark a post) is to go to the top of the thread and swipe left on the title. You'll have the option to Watch, Hide or Share the thread. If you hit the Watch button, the thread will appear in your list of watched threads and can be accessed by tapping on the Watching icon at the bottom of the screen in the app.

If you've posted on a thread, it will automatically appear in the list of Threads I'm On - which also appears at the foot of the screen.

Oh, and if you want to un-bookmark a post, just tap on the bookmark icon again.

Hope that all makes sense.
