Hiding a thread

I know you can go into a thread and hide it. But is there a way to hide a thread just from the title? I’m already feeling triggered by the title, I don’t want to click on the thread and risk seeing something, just to be able to hide it. I want to see the title and go “nope” and make it disappear.

Hi @Spodey - which version of the site are you using? On the iOS app in the list of threads you can just swipe the title of the thread to the left and hit the Hide icon, meaning you don't have to see any of the opening post.

On the mobile site you can click on the thread title and when it takes you to the thread you should see a down arrow in a circle at the right of the page, at the same level as the topic like so -

Talk > AIBU? v

If you click on the down arrow, you'll have the option to hide the thread - on my phone I can do this without seeing the opening post as there's a Promoted by Mumsnet advert at the top of the page.

On the desktop site, the Watch thread, Flip and Hide tabs are at the very top of the thread, before the title, so you should be able to click Hide without seeing the content of the thread.

Thanks @Redglitter - you're absolutely right, on the mobile site threads in the Active Conversation list do have the three dots, with the option to watch or hide, so that should help the OP to some extent.

Threads in individual topics don't currently have that option, but the down arrow that's level with the topic title does give the option to hide the thread, and this comes above the opening post so it should be possible to hide it without reading the content.

Hi OP

At the moment, there isn't a way to hide without going in but it's something we're looking into.
