Okay, this is bugging me. Why does a random gap show up, and how to I get rid?

Edit: deleting the last 5 or 6 characters before the ‘gap’ and retyping them. It works, but it’s not a solid answer.

It’s when you go back in and edit anything. Avoid editing if you can, or there’s the workaround above if you need it.

I’m looking into Custom Badges. This may be gibberish

SELECT p.user_id user_id, min(p.id) post_id, min(p.created_at) granted_at
FROM badge_posts p
JOIN topics t ON p.topic_id = t.id
WHERE t.category_id in (SELECT id FROM categories WHERE slug = 'games')
GROUP BY p.user_id
HAVING COUNT (*) > 1000

WHERE (:backfill OR user_id IN (:user_ids) OR 0 NOT IN (:post_ids) )

Hey @Ian_Chimp,

I wondered if there is a way to save threads for later that I would like to read in the suggested topics list at the bottom of a thread?

I’ll often see a few that I fancy reading, I click on one to read it but when I click back the list of suggested threads has changed to totally new ones.

Am I doing something wrong that I keep losing the original suggestion list?

Thanks,
lmh95

The ‘suggested’ list is dynamic, so it will change each time. But you can Bookmark any topic, or even a single post. So you could go into one of the suggested topics and then pop a Bookmark in for later so you can find it after the suggested list refreshes?

There’s a star icon at the bottom of each post, (or for the topic it’s at the end, in the Topic Controls dropdown), and that brings up the Create Bookmark options. Most of it is if you want to set a timer, but you can just save it without one.

You can manage your bookmarks from your Activity/Bookmarks page, and it also displays your latest ones in the main menu (Notifications/Bookmarks/Account shortcuts).

Is that any help?

Thanks for your help @Ian_Chimp.

Having a go at bookmarking just now

Ian_Chimp · November 17, 2020, 2:39pm

I find them quite a nifty little tool.

But the Search is excellent on here now too, so if you do accidentally lose one you can have a bash at finding it through that.

Dsafo · November 17, 2020, 2:49pm

I can usually remember a little bit of the thread titles and find them. I agree that the search function is so much better on here now but I always find something else suggested that catches my eye to read too so I end up getting sidetracked

I know this probably isn’t the right place for this question, but is there anyway I can amend a review after it’s submitted? I’m worried I haven’t worded something properly and that people may read it in the wrong way

Ian_Chimp · November 17, 2020, 5:58pm

For that you’ll have to email Brenna at the community@lovehoney.co.uk email. Leanne used to prefer that you submitted the amended review in full through the ‘write a review’ link on the product page, and then contact Customer Care to get the first draft taken down.

But Brenna may prefer to do it a different way, so it may be worth emailing her to ask.

ChloJakes · November 17, 2020, 6:04pm

@SexInTheCity Brenna will just retract your original review and you’ll have to re-write again it unfortunately. I also decided to change one of my reviews after being too harsh on the first instance!

I should add, mine was for a tester. @Ian_Chimp May be correct and the care team might have to get involved if it’s just a normal review

SexInTheCity · November 17, 2020, 6:14pm

Thank you @Ian_Chimp and @ChloJakes - I may be overthinking it but it was after someone mentioned on another thread that they’d seen a review which spoke about someone recommending inserting a bullet anally (which I know is a definite no go, and very dangerous, but now I’m wondering whether the wording on one of mine sounds that way!). It’s my review of the Tracey Cox beginners anal kit, I’ve put…
“I loved using with the bullet inserted, but the handle on both the plug and beads are also perfect for a finger and have loved using this way too.” - What I meant was the bullet inserted into the handle, but now re-reading I’m wondering if that’s perhaps not very clear! Perhaps I’ll send Brenna an email and see what she thinks

Ian_Chimp · November 17, 2020, 6:25pm

I’ve just had a read and I see what you mean. Maybe just a cheeky ‘them’ is all you need?

“When inserted into either the butt plug or anal beads it really enhances the feelings, and because of the rumbly vibrations these travel all the way through the toy. The way it sits (almost as a T-bar) also gives wonderful sensations to all those external nerve endings too! I loved using them with the bullet inserted, but the handle on both the plug and beads are also perfect for a finger and have loved using this way too.”

I don’t think the original screams ‘shove a bullet up your bum!’ though.

SexInTheCity · November 17, 2020, 6:30pm

Yes I think you’re right, thank you!! I’ll send Brenna an email and see if she can add in, otherwise I’ll submit again with the added them!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read through - it’s always good to have a second pair of eyes! I think when you write something you know what you mean so it always makes sense, so then it’s hard to see how someone else will perceive it!

Hello all,

Just here to see if we already have a thread to talk about our recent purchases? I thought we did but can’t locate it and don’t want to start one if we already have it; I have just made a purchase that I am super excited for so I want to shout about it

Thanks in advance!
