Ignore Messages Option Gone

I really have a love/hate relationship with this app. It works great, until it doesn't and then naturally you're never going to actually hear from FB if you have a problem.
Backstory: I'm an insomniac. All my friends and family know it and the majority of the time they don't think twice about time when it comes to texting me. After all, I'm generally awake. However when I do, wonder of wonders, start feeling tired enough to sleep, I typically put everyone on ignore. It just solves the problem of people assuming I'm awake. The past 3 or 4 days that option has completely disappeared. Sure, I can mute, but where the heck did it go???? Yes, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. (It didn't help a bit. Though I must say it's very odd to me how a big old app like Msgr reinstalled in under a second even after a restart.) Honestly, I'm perplexed. Any suggestions?

Riddle me this... I put a copy of Msgr in my Secure Folder. Presumably a copy would be identical to what I have on my device, right? *That* one shows an ignore feature. Wth?
 
I'm going to answer my own question here with a work- around as I've come up with no other solution thus far, in case anyone else has the problem. The closest thing I can do is go to Chrome browser, choose Desktop site, then go to www.facebook.com. Once signed in, I can click on messages in the top left, then click on a name I want to Ignore. Then click the gear icon in the message, and Ignore that way. It's a bit time consuming but it does go translate to the app.
