Problems with "Active" reverting to an older page

89 replies

Littlefish · 28/06/2014 17:08

When I load Mumsnet I always click on "Active". As expected, this brings up the most recent page. However, if I click on a thread and then click on the "back button" to go back to Active, it loads a much older page/set of threads - sometimes from at least a day ago.

This is annoying to say the least and means that I have to keep re-clicking the "Active" tab at the top to reload the most recent version.

Any ideas?

I'm on a iPad using safari.

Please can we get this fixed - it is becoming incredibly annoying.

eddiemairswife · 07/07/2014 21:23

Me too.

I'm still getting the page refreshed whenever I go back to Active Convos. Any sign of this being resolved?

I'll see what I can do Rusty

Happens to me on my iPad too.

I'm not in the UK so nothing to do with BT

This is happening to me too now. I haven't been on my ipad for a while and was working fine on my computer butmold active pages come up on safari on ipad

Hi everyone,

Sorry about all the shouting! Tech are working on how to fix the issue. In the meantime all we can suggest is to open the threads you want to read in new tabs.

Does a slice of Cake sweeten the deal?

SunnyRandall · 04/07/2014 06:48

Grrrr very annoying. I am now opening up the threads I want to read in a new tab so I can close afterwards and return to the original active convo list

LoveMyBoots · 03/07/2014 22:19

Hmm still not going back to the page I left. It is refreshing the active page, but I like to go back to where I was otherwise I miss some threads I wanted to have a look at and I repeatedly see others on the active page.

I'm getting exactly this too. It was happening when I read the 2nd page or further of a thread. Seems to be happening if I just read page 1 of a thread now.

Littlefish · 03/07/2014 22:10

Not sorted for me either.

I AM SHOUTING TOO!!!!!! It is sooo annoying, takes all the joy out of MN...

PositiveAttitude · 03/07/2014 17:54

I AM SHOUTING MNHQ - really frustrating now. Still not sorted. Angry

gleegeek · 03/07/2014 12:22

Thought it was just me! I'm using Firefox/laptop/plusnet if that helps? It's really annoying... I'm not bothering Mning at the moment as a resultSad

RustyParker · 02/07/2014 20:38

My Active convos is still refreshing instead of reverting to original page.

No nothing about techy stuff but I'm using Google Chrome if that helps throw any light on the problem??

ApplebyMennym · 02/07/2014 20:35

Still refreshing instead of going back. Cleared cache and history.

WandaFuca · 02/07/2014 20:31

I use "Last Hour" or "Last 15 minutes", and the same thing has been happening for the last few days. The listing refreshes, rather than re-presenting the listing I'd just looked at.

Could it be a cache issue?

Desktop/Firefox/Plusnet.

justmuddlingalong · 02/07/2014 12:03

Still refreshing here, rather than returning to previous page. On Virgin Media.

EveryGoodBoyDeservesFun · 02/07/2014 11:53

I've just come over to site stuff to start a thread saying that when I hit the back button to go back to Active Convos it is refreshing rather than taking me back to the page I was on - I thought I would be better to add to this thread as it seems to be since Tech fixed the earlier glitch!

It is happening on Chrome on a PC and also Safari on my iPhone.

KateSMumsnet · 02/07/2014 11:50

Hopefully the fix yesterday should have fixed this - do shout if it hasn't.

ApplebyMennym · 01/07/2014 20:09

Actually come to think of it, that's what mine has been doing. I don't think I've ever had old topics, it just refreshes rather than going back to the previous page.

marjolaine · 01/07/2014 19:30

Belated but thought this was just me! When I go back I either get a random thread I read sometime in the previous week or a random mix up of active threads (didn't think to look at the date). How odd.

Littlefish · 01/07/2014 19:03

Mine refreshes too, whereas it used to go back to the same page. I agree, it's annoying. I'll report my message for MNHQ to see.

Yes SunnyRandall that's what mine is doing too...
