Tip of the --day-- whenever we get around to changing it. Grrr. Is it just me?

Now, I realise I'm probably only being bugged by this because I'm heavily pregnant, hormonal and spend far to much time on here, but still.

I started reading the tip of the day when it turned up on talk instead of just on the home page. Some of them are great and some are crap, but, I'm getting increasingly annoyed by it. It doesn't seem to get changed at the same time every day, in fact it doesn't necessarily get changed every day at all. If it's not technically possible to change it automatically at a set time each day, can tech not just change the name?

LOL at Tech changing the name. Sorry that you're annoyed by this, I'm not sure why it's not an overnight thing, as it used to be. I'll see what I can find out.

Morning all.

We do try to change the Tip of Random Interlude the Day every day - usually in the early afternoon.

But some days we're a bit forgetful very busy and it gets changed later on.

And we tend only to change it once over the weekend because we have such a small editorial team (and so many children!), it's often a case of best endeavours at the weekend.

We have noted your frustration, though, and have put up a big notice in MNHQ saying Must Try Harder.

Ahem.

I think you'll find that our lovely Tip of the Day is on the Active Conversations page, too - under our equally lovely Mumsnet Latest box.

Yes, tigana, there is no Tip of the Day in Active Convos if you're in MN Classic - BUT if you want to (and we're sure you want to ), you can see it on the Talk Home page.

Really, Mme Lindt? That would be

Acksherly, it is possible: YetMoreTech has been fiddling with our dinky little gizmo for publishing new tips (it's very nice indeed now) and some used tips may have got lost from the log in the process.

Anyhoo, feel free to post your, ahem, colourful tips here - we can always do with more
