How do i clear items from my "recent search" history?

I was just looking around, but an item appeared on my “Recent Search” history page, and I don’t want to look at it every time I log in. I am no longer interested.

Only way I know is to look at something else…bump off the list…

lol TrinketBox. I saw this question a few days ago and could not think of an answer…sometimes the obvious is just too obvious I guess.

On the Search History page you will see all your searches listed in the last few days. You can see the old items by clicking the Older button. Check the box next to each entry you want to delete.
You can use the categories on the left side of the page to narrow the results that are displayed.
A check mark will only appear next to the search term entered, but the check box will also remove any of the sites that you selected in this search.
To mark (turn on the checkbox) all that is displayed on the page, click the button at the top of the list and then try to delete.
Hope this helps.

I’ve always just left mine and they magically disappear, lol- probably a monthly purge by Bonz or something. Never thought about removing them.

To Answer Brilliantly

Remember these tips:

  • Use links to other sources to support your opinions
  • Use examples where possible
  • Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?

Should I post a comment or an answer?

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?

Post an answer for:

  • Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question

Post a comment for:

  • "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
  • When you would like the original poster to provide more details
  • When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
