TWO QUESTIONS

marialionza

1) I looked for the link on abbreviations for NL & SM. I found some of them but not those two. Please help. Thanks in advance. (if there is a link to ALL abbreviations please post it, it is useful)

2) How do I stop the menu of the page to drop down? I did it once and it was fine, now every time I near the cursor, the Cian green ribbon comes flying down...Driving me crazy!
Please help on this one as well. Thanks in advance.

NL = newsletter

SM = social media

There is an informal list of abbreviations prepared by fire**fly here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4140501/abbreviations-on-mse/p1
There are also some more mentioned throughout that thread. But, different boards each have their own commonly used ones and people create their own as and when they feel like it.
NL as commonly used on the comps boards, usually stands for News Letter and is commonly used when a comp needs you to sign up to a News Letter to enter.
SM usually means Social Media and that the comp is entered on one or more Social Media site, e.g. Facebook,X, Instagram etc.

Re 2, I assume you mean the one referred to in the post here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6467327
There are two buttons at the bottom of this post, one stops the drop down menu and the other reinstates it.
(There is a small square button at the end of the Menu at the top of most pages, next to the Help button. That button is a link to that post)

HTH (Hope That Helps)

BootsMullery  &  gdmoney I do hope, one day, I can return the favor (please wait seated as I'm pretty hopeless!)

I can kick myself when I see the obvoius meaning of both abbreviations, logic escaped me a long time ago...

Thank you both so so much, you are the best !
