Question about a thread I posted yesterday

Options
One of the two threads I posted yesterday has been moved into game over despite being still open for entries. I'm wondering what I did wrong with formatting or whether it's the fact that I guessed the end date?

I'd post a link to the thread but I can't post links yet

  • Hi there. You didn't put E: before the date which is why it's GO :rudolf:

    hi, it's this one..

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4843333=

    I think yes, it's because the title wasn't as we usually have them,

    you need to put the E: (space) Title

    like this...

    E: 18/12 ?? jaques Croquet set and Mitchell and Peach toiletries (guessedenddate)

    then pm a Board Guide :)

    (board guide's Dalkirst, Glad )

    to explain the comp is still live after you've amended your title & could it please be moved back to the main comps board x

    7 How can I amend my thread title if I need to?
    To edit the thread title you can click 'Edit' then select 'Go Advanced'.

    TitleAmend1.jpg


    TitleAmend2.jpg

    The next screen will show your post & above it you will see 2 boxes 'Reason for Editing', which you don't have to complete & also 'Title' which has your thread title info in it. Simply click into the Title box & amend your text as necessary. You can 'Preview Changes' to see how it will look, if you want, before you click to 'Save Changes'.

  • Ah fire**fly, your answer is so much more helpful than mine :A
  • I must have accidently missed the E: and didn't pick up that I had done so.
    I've altered the thread and pm'd a board guide.

    Thanks for the help.
