Watching 'SEN' but getting 'SEX'

[agedmother]

I signed up to to watch the SEN topic but am currently getting rather more than I bargained for in my feed. Can this be fixed please; I fear those days are behind me...

Hi @agedmother - oh dear, that's not what you want

Are you using the desktop site? If so, please click on the 'My Feed' tab at the top of any thread, then click on 'Edit'. Scroll down the page to the box marked 'Unfollow a topic' as we think you may have inadvertently ticked the box to follow the Sex topic instead of the 'SEN' one. Untick the box, then tick SEN from the 'Follow a topic' box.

Hope that helps but please let us know if you're still seeing the wrong threads.

Hi @JoMumsnet.

Thanks. No, my eyesight and comprehension are still in functioning order. Alas the same appears not be true for your code which is pulling through Sex matched to SEN in my feed.

Hi OP

Could you possibly email screenshots of your SEN ticked and SEX unticked, and forward us a notification you've received about sex? We're keen to investigate this.

Here you go...

Not sure if the Devs have already fixed this @LilyMumsnet but the Sex notifications have now gone from my feed. It was fun whilst it lasted...

I spoke to soon - here's the issue

Hi There agedmother,

We're sorry to hear this is happening again - most odd!

We'll look into this for you to see if we can figure out a fix.

Thanks @FlissMumsnet. Perhaps the look-up which generates the notifications is set to match on the first two letters of topics only?
