Can we not hide specific threads anymore?

Yes, it’s to the right, near the top, opposite the board name. It’s a dropdown arrow that shows lots of options. Hide thread is on there.

Aah thank you so much, I’m sure we used to be able to hide them without opening them.
Thanks šŸ‘šŸ»

I can hide threads without opening them, are you using the website?

TeaandHobnobs · 24/06/2025 20:00

In Active (in the browser, not the app), the three dots to the right give you the option to either ā€œwatchā€ or ā€œhideā€ the thread

Moonlog · 24/06/2025 20:33

Yes it’s just through the website.
The 3 dots aren’t there for me anymore (that’s how I used to hide them).

Hi @Moonlog, thanks for flagging this issue. So that we can investigate, would you be able to please share a screenshot of what you are seeing?

Moonlog · 25/06/2025 09:45

Hi yes, screenshot hopefully attached. The first one is on the ā€œactiveā€ page and the second is on a specific forum, I’m not even given the option to watch a thread on that.

@Moonlog thank you for sharing the screenshot, this is really helpful. You should be able to hide threads directly from Active, but this option is not currently available on individual topics.

So that we can investigate, please could you let us know the device and browser you are using? E.g. Chrome browser on Samsung S22 phone. Please can we also check - is your screen zoomed in on Active? It looks like the 'Hide' option could be hidden by the zoom.

Ha, although my eyes have gone from like Superman’s to Penfold’s since I hit 40, it’s not terribly zoomed in and I’ve also reduced the size of the font and it’s still the same.
I’m on safari, iPhone 12.
