    I can see all the T words thread Mrs LW. The first post from each thread seems to appear at the top of every page in that thread though, sigh.

    Hi CRANKY so can I now, when this new format first appeared there were only 2 pages of OS Moneysaving main menu and the No T Words thread wasn't on either just highlighted in blue at the top of this one and only reaching August 2102. It's on the main menu now along with all the other missing pages so I guess I was just too previous and it was still being set up. There is still no PRIVATE MESSAGE button though at the top of the main menu and I accessed my messages by clicking on my own send a personal message button below my own name to find my inbox. Any one know how to access it like we were able to before? I'm so Not technological !!!!!

    There doesn't seem to be a USER TOOLS button either?

    I read mainly on my phone and REALLY DISLIKE the new format.

    You can't see whether there have been any new posts & go straight to the end of a thread, it takes up all of my screen but the text is no bigger, it's pants.

  • This new format isn't for me either. You would think it would be a majority vote thing as to what format to have and, since the majority seem to be voting to return to old format, then lets hope MSE is democratic enough to listen to its "voters".

    Mine is fine, no change at all.. odd!
  • OK the USER CONTROL PANEL is also found on the tool bar when you click on the SEND A PRIVATE MESSAGE button displayed below your own user name.
  • Well that's our chance for a say on the forum feedback thread abruptly closed then.

    I had just seen one positive point (only the one mind you.....) re the change of format and typed out that as the one thing that needs to stay if/when the Forum changes back to old format. I clicked to post it up on the thread and...bang....they've just closed that thread.

    Oohs other one who hates this new format did we get any notice that this was changing?
    Ex's mum died this morning not sure of arrangements yet but an understandably sad shanks household today. Working tonight so could be a long week.
    Got lots of bargains at Mr T last night so freezers well stocked for now.
    Hope everyone is well xx
