Thank you I will try that. I do refresh the page but it doesn’t work for long. Not sure how to do some of that but will get some help tomorrow.

I have just found this and glad to find it isn’t just me.

page covering most of Apple iPad saying denied access denied.

I am not very savvy when it comes to technology being nearly pension age and have been asking others, going off the site and on again. I also lose posts and are logged off quite a lot so beginning to get a bit paranoid.

Any help gratefully received.

Ignore the above - sorry! Can you try this -

We found the issue that was causing you to see the consent pop up on every page and we’ve now deployed a fix.

Hi @Blondeshavemorefun . Good news. Fingers crossed that's done it. If you have it happening again though, do yell here.

Re the consent issues, and freezing, that others are describing, we are still looking at those. If you've follwed the instructions on the consent thread and updated your browser and it's still happening, for the moment, we don't have a solution but we are working on it as we speak so please do look out for updates. Most users are finding that updating the browser and reselecting the consent preferences as per our instructions does work, but there are a few people still having the issue unfortunately.

MissMatty2hats · 08/09/2022 16:24

Yep, getting that too on safari on an iPhone. Also the constant requests for consent. I’ve tried following MN advice but that had no effect. Every ten pages or so the screen freezes as well, have to back out of the site and go back in. Getting very frustrated but much more productive in real life so 🤷🏻‍♀️

Me too, worse than ever this evening.

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/09/2022 09:40

Seems to be ok this morning

haven’t had any messages yet @DawnMumsnet

thank you

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/09/2022 18:10

Ok this has seemed to have worked on safari which I have swapped moving to

but I prefer chrome and that’s still playing silly buggers

Arranstorm · 09/09/2022 17:19

@DawnMumsnet , have followed your instructions

Here are the instructions for Safari:

iPhone & iPad
Navigate to your settings
Click on ‘Safari’
Scroll to the bottom and choose ‘Advanced’
Click on ‘Website Data’
Type ‘Mumsnet' into the search box
Swipe left on ‘Mumsnet’ and choose ‘Delete’

But no improvement, if anything it is deteriorating and making it almost impossible to use your site.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/09/2022 17:16

Tho if I do that it says signs me out of most websites

which I don’t want

@DawnMumsnet if I do the cookie thing will I lose all my auto fill ins etx

I am not techno minded !!

Have just checked this for you.

If you delete all cookies - yes
If you just delete the Mumsnet site data - no

But depending on what device/browser you're using, you might only be able to delete all.

Do you know if you've blocked cookies in your browser settings? Or changed any of the privacy settings in the browser away from the default settings?

Sorry for all the questions - we're trying to get to the bottom of this for you.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/09/2022 13:56
