Firstly, a big thankyou for losing that Z in customise

(I am also here just to remind you my problem isn't fixed yet. When you said tomorrow at 3am today, did you mean tomorrow? I'm kind of hopeful that you really meant later today.....)

CatIsSpooky · 26/10/2007 17:54

am starting to feel sorry for tech

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 26/10/2007 18:11

Any idea why I can't start a new convo on Employment Issues???

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 26/10/2007 18:18

OH NO.........NO new convos can be made right now!!!

FrannyandZooey · 26/10/2007 18:32

Poor Tech. We think you are doing a fine job really. Just keep tweaking.

roisin · 26/10/2007 18:37

I think it's lovely

GrapefruitMoon · 26/10/2007 18:41

Don't know if this has been mentioned - but before the recent changes you could, for example, tick the "without buying/selling" box and "active conversations" would always open without buying/selling, even if you weren't logged in. Now it seems you have to log in first before your preferences are adhered to - or have I missed something? (Sometimes I just lurk for a bit before logging in - usually when I feel like posting - and I'm finding it a bit daunting to be faced with the "unedited version" of active conversations as soon as I open the page!

ADragonIs4LifeNotJustHalloween · 26/10/2007 18:51

I can't seem to find " Mumsnet Local" on the list of topics I can ignore. Is it theresomewhere?

Lawrene8 · 26/10/2007 18:54

Hi tech - not sure if it's me but the topic list doesn't sem to work anymore - what am i doing wrong?

Debbiethemum · 26/10/2007 19:05

I want to ignore a thread, but I cannot see the button anymore. Where has it gone

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 26/10/2007 19:49

Bloody hell....spent all this time trying and trying again to start a new convo to see if it was working now.....just noticed the new area!!! So not so urgent but the button below either needs fixing or removing.

WendyWeber · 26/10/2007 20:49

Hooray, just seen that we have Flip back - thank you Tech

pukkapatch · 26/10/2007 23:29

tech, why dont i get a box at the top with op in it when i view threads. except the site stuff ones. possibkly two others?

GreatBigHairyMonsterlapin · 26/10/2007 23:30

Is Unanswered Threads buggered?

bonkerz · 26/10/2007 23:40

argh

ScaremyVile · 27/10/2007 00:00

When I first go onto active convos, all threads I haven't read are in blue and those I have read are in purple - think this is how it always was....?
Anyway, as soon as I click onto a thread all text within posts (including links) is in black and active convos is also in black for unread threads, though still purple for threads I've been on.
Is this right? It looks horrible.

MeMySonAndI · 27/10/2007 14:47

ahem now that I have found my way around the new layout... I love it! (particularly since I removed the unprintable new blue and have been playing with the ignoring function)

However.... I have another suggestion... would it be possible to have the topics listed in alphabetical order in the "search for messages" area?

Gobbledispook · 27/10/2007 14:57

What's not to like - I now ignore 40 topics! Huzzah!

zippitippitoes · 27/10/2007 15:02

i have managed to forget the changes ever happened

Hekate · 27/10/2007 15:44

My ignored topics keep popping back into active convos.

Come on Tech, it's just not good enough you know

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 27/10/2007 16:24

Not sure if it's been mentioned and it certainly isn't an important one but thought I'd let you know I'd not this quite a bit......on a lot of threads it will say x number of messages within thread but when you go into the thread, there's actually only y messages.

Told you it wasn't important! Thought I'd say tho.

TwigorTreat · 27/10/2007 19:19

Probably not important but RE: IGNORING STICKIES

when you set your preferences to ignore stickies they still come up when you first hit active conversations

so you can then go to threads I'm on .. but next time you hit active conversations there are the stickies again and you have to refresh it again to get rid of 'em

told you not importnat .. but now you know

Jas · 28/10/2007 10:06

Tech..... I'm still here, wading through the buying and selling that everyone else can ignore.
Welliemum - Are you still the same too? (I realise that right now you are probaably in bed!)

Hekate · 28/10/2007 12:30

ahem. Tech. My ignored topics are still coming at me in active convos.

nappyaddict · 28/10/2007 12:34

can we have the search options back in alphabetical order? its too confusing!!
