who thought this one up?

Jas · 25/10/2007 21:42

I will nag tirelessly until I can get it sorted thoughwelliemum

I was really looking forward to no buying and selling, too.

GarrottedbyElasticband · 25/10/2007 21:43

will it be easier for me on big threads now?

gizmo · 25/10/2007 21:43

WWW - let me free you from your pain.

Go to the customise page.

Click the 'mumsnet classic' button.

There.

Feel better?

ScaryMonsterStories · 25/10/2007 21:45

Jas

Go to Customize Active convos.

You can ignore any category you want. Even antenatal, swapshops

Good housekeeping if yo really want.

welliemum · 25/10/2007 21:45

Are you in the UK, Jas?

I'm in NZ - we can nag round the clock in shifts

wheresthehamster · 25/10/2007 21:45

Thanks Jas

ELF1981 · 25/10/2007 21:46

Ooooh, all is well, I have customized and now happy.

Though, slight confusion - why do ALL the smilies have halloween hats - does this usually happen, was most confused to see posts in Sep with halloween hats - am I just unobservant?

NormanBatesFletcher · 25/10/2007 21:46

Oh - and now I have been able to exclude the Swap Shop huns lol [sic] as well as the selling huns lol [sic]

I am in MN heaven

(btw have you seen my fab pumpkin on my profile? )

welliemum · 25/10/2007 21:46

Scary, Jas and I have a bug (seemingly the same one) which won't let us do this

ScaryMonsterStories · 25/10/2007 21:47

Won't let you do what? Customize Active convos?

Tech · 25/10/2007 21:48

Hi WWW, Sounds like what you need to do is:

Click mumsnet classic. This resets you to unlimited messages per page, and most recent first order. Then, on that same page, On that same page, flip the order selector box to "book style" and click save at the bottom of the page.

Then you'll have old mn, except that the op will be at the top of the page and the thread will read down the page, but all messages on one page. Is this what you are after?

Jas · 25/10/2007 21:49

Yes I'm in the Uk, so tech, you are in for constant nagging

Tech · 25/10/2007 21:49

welliemum / jas, sorry, what is it that isn't working right for you?

saggarmakersbottomknocker · 25/10/2007 21:49

It will be fine. There, there

Jas · 25/10/2007 21:50

Yes SMS (and tech as I see you are here too) We get a message sayingundefined values when we try and do it.

curseofthemummylin · 25/10/2007 21:50

GarrottedbyElasticband · 25/10/2007 21:50

i want to ingore loads
how do i get them to disappear?

lissiethevampireslayer · 25/10/2007 21:51

i like it. when i had my last mc i would get v upset about pregnancy/antenatal/postnatal threads, (selfish i know) and i like being able to not see them iykwim. thank you tech!

WasherChainSaurusMassacre · 25/10/2007 21:51

So if everyone (almost) is changing back to 'Mumsnet Classic', really what was the point of all your hard work Tech?

WendyWeber · 25/10/2007 21:52

Dunno if this has been asked but Tech dear, please can we still have Flip thread back?

(I've tried top-to-bottom all the time, and it doesn't do it for me, but I don't want to have to keep changing settings when I do occasionally want it that way up)

TIA

Jas · 25/10/2007 21:52

I chose all the topics to ignore and when I click to select I get the "undefined values" message. I also get it if I click to ignore an individual thread.

paddingtonbear1 · 25/10/2007 21:52

I don't mind change but it didn't seem to work too well for me.
I posted a message in Style and was sure I pressed Post not Preview. Anyhow it said 'here is how your message will look' - but there was no message! I refreshed and it had posted it anyway.
