Serious! Active. Amazon glitch

The 'active' button seems to have been hyperlinked with Amazon instead - it takes me to this page

I've got it too Moonlight - I posted about it here this morning. It's really annoying.

It's actually like the cookbook ad is cut in half and the right half of the ad is on the left of my screen and the left half of the ad is on the right side of my screen if you follow. Visually disconcerting.

I've just had another look at Customise and I can't improve my settings in that, they're all good.

I'm seriously considering hoovering. This is bad.

It's me too. Bloomin' frustrating.

I am finding the book advert really frustrating too, as there is now no room at all for the cursor on the laptop for me to scroll. I have to position it on the 2mm of space between the advert and threads. Very annoying.

You got rid of all this other icon thingies a couple of days ago.....and have just replaced it with the book advert. As much as I would love to buy the book I do NOT need to be hyperlinked to the amazon page every time I click on every page.

Is it only a few of us or everyone? This is most weird.

Don't let's be rash now

I've got what looks like half a MN cookbook ad down both sides of the active convos page at the moment plus the normal right hand side blurb. I was thrilled the pin it/Fb etc bar went away but now I've got this. Active Convos is actually now less than 50% of my screen width, the rest is banners etc. My laptop screen isn't that big so over 50% ads is far too much.

I'm in danger of giving up on MN and doing something useful instead!

Look - it's only when you're on Active already. Is it the same for you?

Bum - it's doing it again now! It's a real pain. Only just got rid of that annoying social media side bar thingy.....

Have I broken Mumsnet?

No, I've figured it out. On a thread, it's fine, but when the open page is active convos, all 3 buttons do it. Try.

Was happening with me too earlier but seems to have stopped now.

eurochick · 19/05/2014 14:15

It's working fine for me too.

It's really weird because it's inconsistent. Every, say, 2/5 times?

Works fine for me, OP, could it be something about your setup?

Does it with 'I'm on' too.

Oh, it's the MN recipe book. Is it on purpose? I hope not.

Weird. Only seems to be the one on the blue drop-down bar
