Thanks @mrbee: for developing that for us!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-798255 Tue, 21 May 2013 13:25:24 +0000 mrbee 798255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: @Dandelion: @Cherrybee: </p> <p>Hey guys... posted an update on this feature request here!</p> <p><a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2013/05/21/update-on-gold-part-4-hiding-specific-boards-from-your-boards-front-page/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2013/05/21/update-on-gold-part-4-hiding-specific-boards-from-your-boards-front-page/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779806 Tue, 14 May 2013 08:00:44 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 779806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Hmm I see. Well like I said, just wondering! lol Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate you taking the time to talk about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779805 Tue, 14 May 2013 08:00:44 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 779805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: Just trying to help. I've never had a m/c but I can see how something like this would be very upsetting and I'm sensitive to the problem since I feel like so many bees share it. *hugs* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779801 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:58:28 +0000 mrbee 779801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: we don't have religion or politics boards for that reason! But point taken.</p> <p>Full disclosure: this would be a tricky feature, since it would mean the boards front page would differ by user... making it harder to cache the front page, and thereby increasing the load on our server. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779782 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:48:02 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 779782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: Yeah :o/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779779 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:46:54 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 779779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Yeah I guess? Just like, as they come up on the front page of the HB boards page, if it's one you don't want to see you can just go in and hide it. </p> <p>I mean obviously people can't block out all reminders of things that upset them, but then you just go and do it and it's done and you move on.</p> <p>And I'm sure even ppl who haven't had losses would still use it. Like if some people don't want to see religion or politics, etc. I dunno, just babbling now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779776 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:44:55 +0000 Dandelion 779776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: Yeah, I stalk them sometimes. I don't think it's unhealthy, I think it's just human nature. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779774 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:44:33 +0000 spaniellove 779774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: You know, I've felt the same way and wished there was a way to hide that particular thread. I'll be feeling fine each day and then bam! A Dec 2013 thread scrolls by. Then once in a while I'll actually get suckered into clicking on one, to see what things would be like right now - big mistake. It just brings fresh waves of sadness and anger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779765 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:40:53 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 779765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: ::hugs::</p> <p>Yeah I sometimes get sad when I see Oct. 2012 babies. Which was my first mc. But that was before I joined HB. But sometimes I go in there to look at the pics and see how big my LO would have been, etc. I'm guessing that's not the healthiest behavior.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779763 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:40:47 +0000 mrbee 779763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: one tricky part is... would you have to hide every thread in a board, if you didn't want to see any threads from that board? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779760 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:39:22 +0000 Cherrybee 779760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: I just wanted to pop in and say that I felt exactly the same about the May 2013 due date thread after we'd had our m/c. It'd pop up, I'd feel a pang of sadness and then it was as if my hands were possessed, I couldn't stop myself clicking on it and reading all the posts.... which then made me really upset. It only really stopped hurting when we fell pregnant again (which, fortunately, was only 2 cycles later). Now I enjoy seeing how the ladies on that thread are doing. But you are not alone in the way you feel. Hugs. </p> <p>The ability to hide certain posts is a great idea, going forward! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779756 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:38:27 +0000 Dandelion 779756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have wished this, too...it's hard to see the March Mom thread for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779747 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:33:58 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 779747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NaturallyCathy: great minds think alike lol :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779744 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:31:31 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 779744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Maybe if you click on a thread to open in and then have a button at the bottom of the original/parent post to hide it and an option on your profile (like where it says wall, subscribed, posts) where it shows hidden threads? That way if you ever change your mind you can click on a thread to unhide it. Like an email trash box, so to speak. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779742 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:30:22 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 779742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm, maybe the opposite of a "hearting" something? Although I guess it would have to be different. "Sad facing" something? Just kidding. </p> <p>Honestly...I guess just a little icon or simply "hide this thread" button. (maybe under the title or something INside the thread.)<br /> Then you wouldn't see that thread anymore. Then maybe if you "got over it" after a while, you could go into your "hidden threads" (on profile) and un-hide them? </p> <p>Sorry hope that made sense, I'm no computer wiz :) Thanks for your reply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779735 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:25:42 +0000 mrbee 779735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: To filter posts a bit, you could click into particular categories? Like Parenting, Pregnancy, etc. That way, you wouldn't see any Due Date Twins boards...</p> <p>If we built a more advanced way to filter threads, how would you want it to work? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/not-to-be-a-debbie-downer-but#post-779728 Tue, 14 May 2013 07:21:45 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 779728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is there any way to hide stuff on here? I get kinda bummed every time Dec. 2013 Mommies comes up :o/ </p> <p>Just wondering, I tried to do a little research around here to see if I could get my question answered. </p> <p>Like I said, not trying to be a downer, not meant to offend anyone! </p> <p>Happy Tuesday to all! (Just wanted to end on a happy note, lol :) ) </p>
