Bookmarks messing up page navigation within threads

Don't think anyone's reported this yet, but there seems to be a new issue with navigating within threads. If you bookmark a post on (say) the last page of the thread, and then use the "First" or "Prev" buttons to try to move to a different page, it now isn't working but jumps back to the bookmark instead. I suspect someone's made a techy change recently but it's gone a bit wrong so any bookmarks placed are now overruling any other navigation instructions. Hope that helps...

I've been having the same problem in the last few days using both Firefox and Opera (desktop site/Windows). And also using Opera on mobile site/android.

Exactly as described by Polkadots. I can get to the first page either by bookmarking the OP, or by clicking 'see all' on the OP's posts and then 'go to post'.

I've just had this issue too — mobile site, Safari, iPhone.

I bookmarked the last post on a thread. Previous/next seem ok, but First takes me to my bookmarked post. So does going to page 2 and clicking previous. Typing in numbers works except when I type "1". Then I get an error page (thread not found I think).

I'm using android, on Chrome and the mobile site.

Hi @ahagwearsapointybonnet and @botemp - thanks for letting us know there's a problem here.

Can you please let us know which device you're using to view Mumsnet and which version of the site? (desktop, mobile, or app).

And @Butterer are we right in assuming you're using the mobile site? (We know that some people still use the desktop site on their mobiles, so we just need to check).

We'll pass on all of your answers to our Tech team and hopefully get things working normally again before very long. Brew

Came here to report the same issue, noticed yesterday or the day before but it was just random then now it's consistent, I can only access the page I've bookmarked and navigation buttons don't work.
