Format change

Hi, my format has changed where before it was an old style where I could just see the last few threads but now when I click on what I'm on, it's showing me everything.

When I came on mumsnet today, it forced me to login again and then the format has changed. How can I go back to the original? I'm on an android phone.

There is no difference in the colour between my posts and everyone else's now. They used to be purple on the app and just mine were red (apart from the OP). Now everyone is red

This is horrible. Reminds me of websites from years ago.

Don't like this!

Thanks for all the feedback - we are taking everything on board!

@Softleftpowerstance you can skip to the last page in the thread by clicking on the last number in the page list - see attached pic in this case I'd just click on 2

@GeneLovesJezebel and @backatschool you can change your colour settings here - www.mumsnet.com/settings/talk

You can change that. Click on the down arrow next to Talk, then customise.

You say you'll get used to it but I use the MoneySavingExpert forums a lot and am still not used to the forum changes that were made years ago. Awful. I never understand why something that works well needs to be changed. Every time I click on my notifications here I'm getting the oops message and I hate this new layout. I might 'get used' to it but I will never prefer it to the other one.

benfoldsfivefan · 20/04/2022 07:30

Yes it's horrible. Have they done this to fit more annoying ads on the right hand side?

notacooldad · 20/04/2022 07:29

Why on earth change something that was perfectly ok ? If it ain't broke , don't fix it!
🤷‍♀️

I hate this new format.

Memyselfandfood · 20/04/2022 07:23

And why even though you have the options, ‘im on’ and ‘im watching’ yet you’ve still lumped all the threads in im watching anyway!
whats the point in having the two options if you’re still going too dump all of them in there anyway!

backatschool · 20/04/2022 07:22

On the app my posts aren't highlighted in another colour, they are all the same.

That's exactly how it looks to me.

I thought I'd been hacked! it's like it's operating in a safe mode or something.

Memyselfandfood · 20/04/2022 07:19

yep this is just awful.
for someone with problems this new formal is awful to try and use and view.

fruitpastille · 20/04/2022 07:17

The gap between posts is bigger which means I have to scroll much more as I read/ skim quite quickly. It's very annoying. The bold font for thread titles is high contrast and also very annoying.

Zoom101 · 20/04/2022 07:12

Hate it 😔

Softleftpowerstance · 20/04/2022 07:11

You can no longer jump to the last page in a thread, which makes long threads unusable.

RagzRebooted · 20/04/2022 07:10

Actually it's growing on me already I quite like the layout.
Few things need fixing, like showing threads I've clicked on and having the date show as today or yesterday in posts (I was very confused that apparently this all happened on the 20th and I only just noticed, until I realised that was today!).

crackingreward · 20/04/2022 07:10

My app has gone to pot. I had to log on through the website.

Firesidefox · 20/04/2022 07:09

I don't like it at all. It's much more dragged out and harder to read than before.

AnImaginaryCat · 20/04/2022 07:03

I'd say we'll be used to it fairly quick. Like any change!!

All I need to do is figure out how to get to the last post in a thread, so far I'm going to the start or middle (of a whole three attempts).

Fairly slowly in my case, I’m not an early adopter . . .
