Side bar covering all of screen in safari

Hi,
I’m getting a side bar covering almost all of the screen in safari, it won’t go when cross is clicked. I’ve tried quitting browser and refreshing etc. Looks like this picture. Any ideas?

Sending this from my phone which does work (Chrome / Android)

Not working on Chrome on a Mac either, massive block covering the top of the screen, and it's not possible to post (no box to type into under 'message')

Me too, have come onto a laptop to report it. I can't use the site on my android phone.

Have also just cleared browsing data and it's still there.

Using Chrome browser.

Hi I've done the clear browsing data and it still won't let me view my account because that sidebar is in the way and won't disappear when I press the x

Hi all

We think it may well be a cache problem, which should be fairly easy to sort from your end.

If you don't know how to clear your cache, you can find instructions on how to do it here: www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser%27s-Cache

If that doesn't sort the problem out, please don't hesitate to come back to us and we'll have another look into how to solve this.

I'm having exactly the same issue. The side bar won't close when I press on the x so I can't see my messages, notifications etc

Same issue here.

I’m having the same problem. I can’t see the full screen on my iPad because the side bar won’t close

Hi, that should be a full screenshot- and I’ll check the browser. You’ve reminded me I need to do an iOS update so it could be that?

Hi OP

Could you provide a full screen screenshot for us and let us know if your browser is up to date?
