It's as though my "message potser" button has morphed into the "Home" button.

It makes me sad.

Stat.

Hi Chaos

Sorry about this - is there still a problem?

DanFmDorking · 26/09/2012 21:55

I have just re-booted my PC and cleared the Cache.
The problem is still there.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 26/09/2012 22:01

Blimey, normally tis Knotty and me having problems with PMs for the blankets. And it's not us this time Shock

Now I've said that, we are doomed.

Chaos - I recommend cutting down on caffeine and refined carbohydrates, plus taking more exercise.

TequilaMockinBird · 26/09/2012 22:35

I never get pm's so wouldn't know Sad

RowanMumsnet · 26/09/2012 22:43

Righto - apologies. We will get Tech to have a look.

Hi, this can happen if the page is slow to load completely. The "Message poster" links become active only after the page has finished loading. if you click them before that they just jump you to the top of the page. Or there might have been a script error on the page. Was it happening on a particular thread or lots? Is it still happening now? Thanks.

madwomanintheattic · 27/09/2012 00:12

I'm with talc.

OlaRapaceFru · 27/09/2012 08:28

Yes, it's still happening. The page is loaded, but it's still jumping me to the top of the page. I've tested it on a few threads I was on yesterday and every thread I've been on this morning. No joy Sad

OlaRapaceFru · 27/09/2012 09:26

I've just noticed something. Where it says :

Add message | Report | Message poster

When you hover your cursor over each of those options, there's a underline under the first two but not under Message poster. Could this be something techy to do with it?

dottyspotty2 · 27/09/2012 09:32

still like that I tried to pm someone yesterday just took me back to start of page its still the same

OlaRapaceFru · 28/09/2012 05:29

Still not working on threads; I've just had to go into my Inbox to send a PM - 'tis most inconvenient as I had to copy the MNer's NN first, as it's a rather long one which I'd probably spell incorrectly, and then paste it into the 'To' thingamijig!

bigTillyMint · 28/09/2012 05:48

Another problem here - just had my PC cleaned up and rebooted, etc and (co-incidentally?) the message poster option is no longer workingSad

I had to do what Ola did - verrrrrrrrrrrry annoying!

DutchOma · 28/09/2012 11:43

That's what I just did. Like Ola Also using Internet Explorer. Also MN is incredibly slow at the moment. 's Not my computer, cause Facebook and gmail work ok.

Afternoon.

Are people still having trouble with this?

Or have the gods of technology smiled on us? We're having some issues with the site on IE9, and this issue may be part of it. Are you all on IE9?

TalcAndTurnips · 28/09/2012 16:00

Mine is still the same - and my Preview Message is still not working either.

Sad
dottyspotty2 · 28/09/2012 16:01

NewKateMumsnet · 28/09/2012 16:05
