- the bar that says "Sort: " and then has drop-down menus - there's a drop-down option to turn Milestones off. Remember to hit the "Go" button after selecting it.

Caveat: The Milestones drop-down menu is not available on phones at the moment. You can change it when signed into DU on a desktop computer though, and doing so will also turn the Milestones off on your phone.

- but I'm not seeing any of that on the Latest Discussions or Home page on my PC (not phone). If by "filter bar" you mean the MY DU, tab, I'm not finding anything you describe there either. I am not a Star Member if that makes a difference.

By the way I just made an adjustment so that if you are on a phone, the full filter bar can now be viewed by turning your phone sideways.

On my computer in the left most column is a list of forums including a list of subscribed forums. Below that are 5 of the latest subscribed forums' posts. Below that is the "Feed Settings button" -- Click on that. Uncheck any checkbox that has Milestones in it (there are 3 of them). Then click Save.

Borrowing from Yonnie3

Once place you can see it is on the Latest Dicussions page

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=latest_threads

Under the Start Discussion button lies the filter bar.
It starts with Show ... Category
then Relevance and more

You can select what is shown/not shown on that page. The filter bar appears on several other pages that display posts from different forums.
