On the mobile site, I often tap on a thread but the one that opens is 2-3 lines higher.

Does that make sense? So there will be a list of Active threads:

AIBU to think pigs can fly?

Help with Potty training

Oh no, I'm covered in bees!

I'll click on "Bees" and it will take me to "pigs". I don't always notice straight away either. It's really annoying! The page isn't even jumping unless it happens in the split second that I click every time.

I am using android 5.1.1, standard Samsung browser.

Happening on desktop too - Windows/Chrome.

Seems to have started around the time the silly floating side bar came about.
Was fixed for a while, then came back with the font change.
When "Active" is loading, the page jumps 3 rows down when the Social Media stuff loads.
Same happens when you eventually get to click on the tread you wanted. As the thread loads, it's fine until the twitter and FB stuff loads.....
Can't say anything about ads cos I've got add blocker on so don't see them.

Me too. Thought it was my phone. I'm on the mobile site on an android

Happening here too! Chrome on Android (Nexus 6P). It is so annoying.

CurbsideProphet · 26/05/2016 10:25

Happens to me on Android.

whatdoIget · 26/05/2016 10:24

I've just close safari and reopened it and it's stopped happening SmileBlush

whatdoIget · 26/05/2016 10:23

Still happening for me. Anyone else?

Samoyedy · 25/05/2016 21:55

Me too - chrome android

whatdoIget · 25/05/2016 21:18

This is sort of happening to me but it is opening the thread I want, but the thread that is highlighted while the page is loading is one 2 lines down. Hope that makes sense?
Also, when I'm typing, a very annoying 'jumping' effect is happening.
On I phone using safari

ohidoliketobe · 25/05/2016 21:10

Still getting this - thought it was my fat fingers! ! (Using android / Chrome browser, doesn't seem to be a particular ad)

Nibledbyducks · 25/05/2016 21:07

Happening to me on android using Firefox, also frequently can't click on thread titles and crashes my browser...

RothermeresFolly · 25/05/2016 15:57

This happens to me too, using the desktop. It is really quite annoying. It has been happening to me for a few weeks.

This happens to me. I'm using a Samsung S4.

sunnydayinmay · 17/05/2016 21:57

Ooh, I thought I was just mistyping. Happens to me a lot as well.

cozietoesie · 17/05/2016 21:55

Sorry - that would be on the app, so it's not just a mobile site issue.

cozietoesie · 17/05/2016 21:54

Still happening for me.

MrsLettuce · 17/05/2016 21:15

Still happening here too. Has been for an age.

Also the issue with the bar at the bottom of the screen being functionally transparent after it appears to have loaded, IYSWIM. So, say I click on the TIO button or the Active Convos button but it isn;t really there yet so loads the thread the bar is overlaying (which I can't see through the buttons).

Is there any news on this? It's still happening.

ThursdayNextIsMyHero · 12/05/2016 17:27

Please Tech, can you investigate? It seems to be getting worse. It's just taken me three attempts to load the correct thread. I mostly use the active conversations, so I don't know if there is the same issue on specific boards.

ThursdayNextIsMyHero · 23/04/2016 09:21

Hi, this is still going on for me, so not fixed yet

chickindude · 18/04/2016 15:50

Me too
Thought it was my clumsy fingers... But I did wonder

Nope, not fixed for me, and now I have ads bigger than they should be half the time too. I don't know what a Crief Hydro is but I'm definitely not ever going to buy one after this!

SecretSpy · 16/04/2016 13:48

Has this been fixed now? It doesn't seem to be happening for me any more - Flowers
