Go to your Hot Match page and look at the link just to the right of the word Summary.

What does it say? It will be either View current hot matches or View ignored hot matches.

PS When you deleted them, did you actually click on the "Discard Selection" link at the bottom of the page to save the changes , or did you just tick the boxes?

Hello Peter i ticked all the boxes and then pressed discard all.
Yes i can see the link on the left but that seems to be new ...is it?
Well when i get time i will "Discard " again.
Thank you for answering.

It is not new but is where you can switch between discarded and current matches.

What does the link next to summary say?

OK,

You need to set it so that "View Ignored" is visible. You will then see your current matches.

If "View Current" is visible, you will be looking at your Ignored Matches.
