monstermansmum · 10/06/2009 17:53

err i'm abit thick! what does that mean?

coppertop · 10/06/2009 17:57

It used to be under the Parenting section on the topics page but now there's a section called Special Needs and it's been divided up into Children, Teens, Education etc. Basically you just scroll down on the topics page.

monstermansmum · 10/06/2009 18:01

I dont have that! I had the SN page saved in my favourites so i dont know how to do anything else!!! oooooh not happy. Will have to re learn what to do now

2shoes · 10/06/2009 18:03

it looks like a work in progress to me, maybe tech hasn't finished it yet.

JustineMumsnet · 10/06/2009 18:05

Sorry it's a balls up - we have created a new area and children is just one of the topics but for some reason the others aren't working/showing. Now BigTech's gawn - we'll try to track him down soonest...

monstermansmum · 10/06/2009 18:06

youre right 2shoes-I emailed them and they said that they had separated the topics within SN but it wasnt working properly at the moment.

coppertop · 10/06/2009 18:06

Monstermansmum - If you follow this link here to the Talk topics page ou can scroll down the list until you see Special Needs on the left-hand side. Click on the words 'Special Needs' and it should come up with the new SN topics.

Flamesparrow · 10/06/2009 18:07

where did children come from?!?!?!

(as in the topic, I know the basics )

coppertop · 10/06/2009 18:08

Poor BigTech. He'll never be allowed out of his shed again.

Flamesparrow · 10/06/2009 18:10

Justine - is it going to just say "children" etc all the time, or will it be "special needs children"?

A lot of people just click from active convos and won't realise it is SN stuff

2shoes · 10/06/2009 18:13

how exciting though a shiney new teens topic.

bubblagirl · 10/06/2009 18:30

oh no i have only just realised does that mean there is no special needs anymore just children as i like the crowd in special needs lol and no one will know where to go for help on special needs subjects

JustineMumsnet · 10/06/2009 18:35

You make a very fair point Flamesparrow - we're going to have to rename these topics aren't we? Double balls up!

Flamesparrow · 10/06/2009 18:36

If you want to employ me to work from home, then I can point out these things beforehand to make less work for you

LollipopViolet · 10/06/2009 19:13

I like that we have our own board now, and maybe I'll fit nicely into the teen bit (for this year at least...20 in December eeek!) But I wish there was a notice on the top of the page or something, I've just panicked!

Flamesparrow · 10/06/2009 19:44

would assume though - no new random posts have popped up in children

Deeeja · 10/06/2009 20:07

Found it!

lou031205 · 10/06/2009 21:21

Justine, is someone going to be separating out the threads over time? At the mo there are none in education.
