And it's nearly impossible to check the new threads on posts I'm on. It would appear you have to click on the small arrow and not the post. But 9/10 times it isn't working, and just hangs, so I've had to click on the thread name and scroll all the way to the end, to see ONE reply. Some posts are 600+ strong.

That needs looking at urgently @MNHQ.

I'm on chrome on android if that makes a difference.

The trending box for me hasn’t shown anything new for 2 days, despite being refreshed. It’s like there’s nothing new happening on this at all. I’m happy to give it a few days to see if things settle, but my current experience of the new site is pointing to me not bothering with MN any more, it’s not as easy to navigate any more.😕

Is it just me
or has the search function changed? (For the worse)

I've also just noticed that here on my phone I'm in, and stay in
Clicking from an email through to the thread in question I have to resign in - when I do that it tells me my email and password aren't correct.
Think I'll give up for a bit.

I don't mind changes, I've been here 20 years and always roll my eyes a bit when tweaks are made and people protest. But at least you've generally still been able to use the site before!

Mine keeps signing me out. Then goes back to old usernames. Bit of a mess.

I have 3 usernames
This general one for general stuff
One for a specific thing I know a lot about and give info about
One for a long-running thread I'm on

Can only use this one now and keep being told the other 2 don't belong to me.

@LilyMumsnet when will a functioning bookmark option be returned on the app?
Complete waste of time trying to use mumsnet when bookmarks are not working

HotCrossTum · 21/04/2022 02:57

Now I can. I've tried posting all day which failed.

HotCrossTum · 21/04/2022 02:56

I can't post, just testing.

AutumnOrange · 21/04/2022 02:51

And just as I typed that message threads I have clicked on now change colour! 😂

The site has never been better for me (sorry!). Everything is working, it’s clearer (when you get over the change) and more customisable. I really like it.

Me too. Not having any issues. I am on my iPhone on safari.
My only issue is the threads I have clicked on don’t change colour.
I don’t particularly like the new look but then I moaned when they last changed it and soon got used to it 😂
When MNHQ make changes there are always glitches and people complain about a new layout (me included) and then a few weeks later the glitches are ironed out and everyone gets used to it.
T’was ever thus!

SquirrelG · 21/04/2022 02:24

I quite like it, but agree that the trending section doesn't seem to be working properly as those showing are old threads. No complaints otherwise!

FlibbertyGiblets · 20/04/2022 23:54

Cannot see the following in the topics list:
FWR sex and gender
AIBU
Body and Soul Relationships

I can land on them if I google and go that way but really we ought not be navigating away to navigate back? And when I land I often get the 500 error message, all a bit hopeless tbh.

Sorry to put my grumble in so late at night! Tomorrow will be a better day for everyone #PollyAnna

If you open Feminist Chat there is an option to click though to Sex and Gender
But clicking on any thread on Sex and Gender brings up a server error for me

@Inclinedtochatter @bonkersbirdie

Mine too and when I bookmarked it again they are not sticking around. I'm using the app.

Same issue on the iPhone app too I'm afraid! It makes it almost unusable for me and I suspect others, such a shame this update has caused so many issues. I can't understand how beta testing didn't rebeal lots of these glitches?

Aquamarine1029 · 20/04/2022 23:59

This new platform is absolute bollocks. I'm gobsmacked it's this bad.

Manekinek0 · 20/04/2022 23:58

Is anyone else having issues with the trending section? The list of 5 threads that comes up in the box. Mine isnt updating and is all old threads.

I will give it a few days but if no change I think I will just delete. I spend too much time on here anyway.

Awful adverts everywhere - I have a premium account - what am I paying for?

JorisBonson · 20/04/2022 20:17

This is crap. Getting logged out every the I navigate away and the video ads are a nightmare. Might flounce off elsewhere for a while.

TangoWhiskyAlphaTango · 20/04/2022 20:11

Where the hell has the Higher Education board gone???! A group of us have 1000s of messages on there now its gone?? 😡

RishiRich · 20/04/2022 20:08

It's working fine for me. I'm using Chrome on an Android phone.

MaryStuart · 20/04/2022 19:59

underneathleaf · 20/04/2022 19:47

Did you check the 'keep me logged in' box?

It won’t let me tick that. It logs me in before I can. Then kicks me out again. Aaggghhh. 🙄

mistermagpie · 20/04/2022 19:57

I'm still signed in but all the threads in active are ancient. Also my hidden topics (all to do with pregnancy and conception stuff and hidden for good reason) have all become unbidden, so I'm seeing lots of posts I don't want to.
