Many of our newer members may not be aware they can mute and/or ignore other members posts. This can even be done for members whose profile is set to private.
The process to mute/ ignore a member …
When a member has been ignored, their posts will show as ‘post is hidden’.
You can also mute an entire thread and it will not show up in your feed. This feature is available at the bottom of every thread. Just click on “watching” and the other options come up.
How can you find your list of muted threads to unmute them?
Go to your preferences and then click on categories.
Yay, thank you
@Lisa07 Thank you for sharing. I have a troll I want to ignore.
Hugs
Can you block a user from seeing your posts?
Kind of like a reverse ignore.
Can you tell if someone else has muted you?
And how do I unmute my TV???
There’s a special function to make nobody see your post. It’s called not posting 
I do not believe you can block someone from seeing your posts. That would be an interesting ability tho.
No, you cannot tell if someone has muted you.
****and bumping this thread for all our 2023 newcomers.
Bunping this thread for all our new members.
Bumping for 2026!!
Why would anyone want to block anyone here? From my experience everyone’s been really helpful and encouraging. I feel it would be quite triggering if I thought someone here dis that to especially without explanation.
First and foremost, we are all here for sobriety and community support. In early recovery, we are often very sensitive, easy to anger and generally touchy (I certainly was). So sometimes personalities can grate on you. Or you just don’t like the kind of advice someone gives. Or whatever someone’s reason is. The option is available if needing a break from someone.
Do know that people cannot see if someone has muted them or ignored them, so no harm in doing so.
Fair enough it has just never crossed my mind to be honest. I hope it doesn’t happen to often. But that’s none of my business.
I have muted several tags and threads as they are triggering for me. a very useful option. and some members.
it’s a kind of selfcare.
