  • No, there is no way to go back, that forum no longer exists.
    You can do a set date by using the search function (see the first post in this thread).
    yes i tried the date search but then the red and green box option are not in them for me to click once opened up in the search so i got a bit lost. 
    shame the old set up totally went would have been great to have a choice.
    :A
  • I'm not sure what you're saying, the existing Entered / Skipped from the old site has been moved across and are viewable on the main board
    Sorry sleepyjones you are right. As I had too many tabs open, I don't think that they had time to refresh  :) Fingers crossed if all data has been migrated then they can move onto fixing bugs and adding functions. I know that it doesn't look and feel the same as before but the switch over has been quite seemless

    @grinnerlynn I was editing that post as you posted your reply, dunno if that's of any use?

    There's nothing to stop you from just ignoring the competitions you don't like the look of and just entering the ones where the title appeals to you, then you can go back and red X the others when the button is working, you can use this link to view the newest posts : https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/categories/competitions-time?sort=new

    I have clicked entered before entering but then I realized I can't find the survey, now I cannot untagged  the Enter button. It is stuck, anyone has worked it out how or is it another sore we have to suffer and not tell  because they don't think it so bad ?
    I don't think that's really a bug though, You clicked "Entered" before you had actually entered.  You can change it to Skipped by clicking the skipped button.
    I think the point marialionza is making is that if you tick Entered by mistake there is no way to clear it, only to change to Skipped. If you want to come back later to consider whether to enter or not, or if you had clicked Entered assuming the form was available or the answer was available and find that you cannot actually enter the competition, or anything else that can go wrong before you submit, you will not be able to browse the forum and identify the comp you have not entered since it will now either have an Entered or Skipped icon. There should be a third option, Clear, if you cannot untick as was the case in the old forum.

    @One-Eye Thanks, not the best though :)

  • The Post, Phone and Text Forum seems to be missing the Entered / Skipped options, nor do they indicate if previously entered?

  • Is anyone else struggling to search by end date? I'm just getting the same competitions repeated.
  • The "puzzler.com - regularly updated ONGOING competitions" thread seems to be missing the Entered / Skipped options, nor do they indicate if previously entered?
