The toolbar accross the bottom ... has gone.

I started a thread (this one haha) using the drop down at the top.

I liked the toolbar !
Has it gone forever?
I liked hitting the 'active' button

Still broken for me too. I'm using desktop on my
phone as nothing works on the mobile site and also have no bottom bar.

Catzpyjamas · 18/05/2017 18:40

HELP!!
Can someone please tell me how to bookmark on the desktop site?

LemonRedwood · 18/05/2017 18:39

Still broken for me on Samsung mobile / Chrome.

Have resorted to the app. It's horrible Sad

MrTumblesbitch · 18/05/2017 18:37

Any update MNHQ? It's a right pain in the bum!

Catzpyjamas · 18/05/2017 18:37

I'm having the same problem on the mobile site - Chrome browser on Sony phone and Silk Browser on Kindle.

I don't like being on the desktop site. My colours are all wrong and smiley shortcuts don't seem to work. Sad

SinisterBumFacedCat · 18/05/2017 18:28

Switched to desktop, I can't post at all from mobile. This is a test post.

JennyOnAPlate · 18/05/2017 18:17

I was hoping there would have been a response about this by now....

RebootYourEngine · 18/05/2017 18:16

Posting to see if the desktop works for me. The mobile site isnt working for me. Hate the desktop version.

MackerelOfFact · 18/05/2017 17:59

Same here. Toolbar gone, none of the buttons at the top work and can't post.

According to the Internet mumsnet has a 7 million quid turnover and assets of 5.3 million
let's all pat ourselves on the back for all the hard work and the hours we put in creating content for this site, we've made mumsnet lots of lovely money and we do it all for free

Theresnonamesleft · 18/05/2017 17:47

This is a trick to get me to write an assignment. It's clearly not working haha.
But anyway like others - lost the bar at the bottom, cannot click any of the icons at the top of the page to get the bottom bar back. Cannot bookmark etc on the drop down box.
Cannot post had to go on the desktop to post.
On iPhone latest update.

toffeeboffin · 18/05/2017 17:40

On android, super frustrating MN.

toffeeboffin · 18/05/2017 17:39

Is this a trick to get me to do laundry?

MyOtherProfile · 18/05/2017 17:36

I can't see the bottom bar any more, or post or click on the middle button on the mobile site. And the desktop site is really irritating on a phone so I'll have to go do something else instead!

kali110 · 18/05/2017 17:31

I shall be deleting the app then!

kali110 · 18/05/2017 17:29

The app is also playing up. Taking ages to load when you press on topics.

BabytoBoris · 18/05/2017 17:27

According to the Internet mumsnet has a 7 million quid turnover and assets of 5.3 million. Please could a little bit more of this be invested in infrastructure? Given MNs original purpose was to help the sanity of Middle class mums on Mat leave, outages like this don't help. Most forcing me to interact with people in real life and that's a bit wierd

Sittinginthesun · 18/05/2017 17:22

I've just done an update thing on my phone (which I don't understand), so thought I'd broken Mumsnet. Quite relieved to hear it's not just me. Switched to desktop for now.

peaceout · 18/05/2017 17:17

Is that true about the app hq? Do you harvest data and track the owners of devices via the app?
c'mon you know the mantra
if it's free you are the product
we provide all the content for the site and the owner of the site just has to harvest it and sell it to advertisers, we all work for mumsnet for free...arent we generous!

TizzyDongue · 18/05/2017 17:11

Ive downloaded the app. It's awful!

Though it's got more smilies than the mobile site

Every cloud.

PuppyMonkey · 18/05/2017 17:09

Oh no, I just tried to post on mobile and it won't let me. That's this month's iphone issue then is it? Sad

PuppyMonkey · 18/05/2017 17:04

I'm on desktop site on laptop to post this as having the same problem on my Iphone 6s plus.

The only way I could get the buttons on the bottom back was to keep pressing "back" and eventually I came to a page where the Active, Watching, Add Post, I'm On etc icons were all there. Confused

Maudlinmaud · 18/05/2017 16:53

I just downloaded it today as I couldn't see the text on desktop. Your post is making me think I should delete it. I don't like the idea of being tracked.

peaceout · 18/05/2017 16:44

I'm using the app now, it's much easier than desktop
I never use an app if I can use a browser
