How do I find my threads

9 replies

I want to find all my threads I started as I want to find a specific one.
How do I do this?
I can't work it out

On the desktop and mobile sites you should have an 'I started' option.

Pics show it on mobile site.

I'm on iPhone. I don't have that. I have not found a way to find my threads other than scrolling back through 'I'm on'

Also if I unfollow threads they still sit in my 'watching' and my 'I'm on ' so it's hard to find previous threads I've commented on.

And I have no voting option.

Mn advise was to log out and log back in. It didn't work.

@decaffonlypls are you using the app? If, so, you need to switch to the mobile site on your browser to access the menu I've shown.

Hi @purpleme12 - as Yarnorama has (very helpfully!) pointed out, you'll need to switch to the mobile site to be able to see the Threads I Started tab.

If the thread was from a very long time ago, it may not show up in that search but you're very welcome to drop us a line at [email protected] (or just hit the report button on this thread) and we can try to find the thread you're looking for.

@decaffonlypls unfortunately the app doesn't currently support the voting function, so you'll have to switch to our mobile site if you want to vote or be able to see the vote count on AIBU threads.

What happens when you hit the Unwatch tab on a thread you're watching? It should make it disappear from your Watching list. However, if you've posted on a thread, while you can remove it from your Watching list, it will remain in the I'm On list.

@decaffonlypls it's also worth checking your Talk Settings page - https://www.mumsnet.com/settings/talk - scroll down to the Watching Threads header and make sure that the 'Automatically 'Watch' threads I post on' box is set to 'No'.

@JoMumsnet I'm happy for them to go in there as I do want to save some but if I select unfollow surely that should override it?

Hi @JoMumsnet I logged out of the app and back in as my browser account seemed to be different to my app account (different user name) I'm not sure if I had two accounts. It was me who wrote the previous post but I want to post again so I don't miss your reply thanks

Hi there @autienotnaughti . We're a bit confused now - might be too early on a Monday for us still! ;-)

Could you drop us a line off this thread and we'll have a chat? If you just hit the report button on one of your posts on this thread and send a message to let us know who you are, we can have a chat and get to the bottom of this with you. Thanks!
