Mumsnet Talk

For the past few days my threads keep coming up backwards, although I had them set to read like a book, I now haave to Customise my settings every time I come onto Mumsnet, and again if I open another window then come back to Mumsnet in the same 'sitting' I also have to Log In each time, and Log In when I want to go into Threads I Started etc, even though I have been a member for a long time now and never had to do any of this before.

Could you please tell me what I need to do to change the settings to what I would like on a permanent basis? Thanks.

Hi Olivia I am using internet explorer, thank you for your help.

I was just wondering if you've had a chance to see what the problem is on my account yet please? I am still having to Customise every time I use Mumsnet, and the odd thing is that every time I go into the Customise function my threads are actually already set to just the way I want them anyway (Reading Down Like A Book), but I have to press Save every time to make sure that happens.

I would really appreciate your help to get my account back to normal, thanks.

Same thing happening to me (and it takes me ages to find 'customise' too but that's my problem not MN's....)

same thing happens to me all the time! It drives me mad- happens on IE and safari sometimes doesnt seem to be any rhyme or reason to it happening either- so I often have to make sure I read the first and last post to a thread to check which is the starting one as threads read backwards can be entertainingly wrong!

So glad someone started a thread on this as I kept meaning too.

Hi yes I actually HAVE to log in before I am able to access any function on Mumsnet now, and even once I have logged in to be able to Customise I then have to log in again before I can get into Threads I Started/Threads I'm On etc. If I mimimise Mumsnet to go onto another site then come back to Mumsnet I have to Log In again and reset my threads to read down like a book.

I'm not logged in all the time but when am not logged in it seems totally random whether my threads start from the top or the bottom!

Sounds like the www/no www problem again - I see you are still not redirecting to only one, and still setting cookies for www.mumsnet.com so visits to www.mumsnet.com and mumsnet.com will have different settings, including logged in / not logged in.

Hi just to say that everything seems to be back to normal now with all my settings and options, thank you very much for sorting it out for me.
