Minus signs

When I look at threads in the active section, there’s a - sign next to them now

A + would be quite helpful

Is this part of a change? I’ve only just seen it today.

also, I have accidentally hidden two threads that I wanted to read - honestly, I’ve never seen this button before so just fat fingers - does anyone know how I restore them? Thank you

Hi @EmeraldRoulette,

As other posters have pointed out, selecting the minus symbol next to a thread title in Active will hide that thread.

If you'd rather not hide threads from your Active feed, you can turn this setting off in your Talk settings here. Just scroll down to the Active feed section and switch off "Let me hide threads on my active feed."

You can also view any threads you've already hidden by going to your profile menu in the top right-hand corner, selecting Settings, then Talk settings, and scrolling down to Manage hidden threads and topics. Here's a link though so you can go there straight away.

We hope that helps, but if you have any other questions, just let us know.
