Bookmark Issue

Hello

I'm not sure if this is something I've inadvertently caused myself or a problem with the forum.

When I went to My Bookmarks earlier it seemed to show every thread I'd ever bookmarked. I removed all but the fairly recent ones and reset the list to show the recently commented ones first.

Unfortunately, every time I've returned since it's reverted back to a random list so that I have to scroll down to find the busy threads I visit regularly.

How can I get the bookmarked threads with the most recent responses to show at the top of the list again? 🤔

  • Do we really have to now select 'recently commented' every time we go to bookmarks?

    And why show the first part of text of first page of a diary under every thread heading? It's irrelevant, visually unpleasant, and means there's less space to see which diaries you follow have unread comments on.

    Hoping this is a software glitch rather than another 'improvement'!

    Thanks for providing this forum

    Hopefully, it is a glitch.

    Otherwise, it is a real downgrade in ease of use and a lot less intuitive

    Some of my bookmarks appear to be missing ☹️

    I also hope that it will revert back shortly and is just a glitch.

    ETA just noticed they are ordered by recently created…😕

    How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 3.24% of current retirement "pot" (as at end December 2025)

    Thanks @Skint_yet_Again .

    I've also noticed that when I scroll down to the bottom of the bookmarks there's nothing whereas before there were choices to go to recent discussions etc.

    This is on my phone, I've not been able to try any other devices yet.
