Expired page notification

Why do I keep getting this come up when I exit from a thread? It happens when I've only been logged on for about five minutes, and skimmed through a thread.

It used to only happen if I'd logged on and then not logged out and left it for hours (because I've nodded off).

Android on chrome.

Fixed for me now. Thank you

I've noticed this too, when I try to press back to return to Active, I get the page expired notice.

When I click cancel/don't reload, it doesn't take me to the version of Active that I was looking at immediately before that thread. It takes me to some other version of Active from hours before (which is probably why it thinks it was expired)

If I allow it to refresh, it takes me to exactly the version of Active that I was looking at before that thread, not the most up to date one.

So it seems there are three versions of Active: -

Active threads A (a cached version from hours ago triggering the "expired page" notification)
Active threads B (a cached version from immediately before clicking on the thread - should not trigger expiry notification, as only a few seconds/minutes old)
Active threads C (the most current up to date version)

When I press back from a thread I expect to be taken to version B but I'm actually being taken to version A. And then refreshing should produce version C, but either the site is moving very slowly for some reason or refreshing is producing version B.

I'm on Chrome on a windows PC.

Thanks all - we're still looking into this one and we will update when we can. Flowers

Having the same problems described by others

YolayCaprese · 27/03/2023 12:24

I've had this for a couple of days. Using a Google pixel.
Im using chrome. I select a thread in active then go "back" and I get the expiry notice. The list in active doesn't seem to refresh when I refresh it either, or the threads are just a bit off.

I know its the weekend so any fixes will take time. However the top thread on my screenshot has been hidden by me 8 times now. Twice were yesterday. I've even closed the browser down a couple of times today in the hope it will stay hidden. Dont know if this helps.

If it helps, I'm not getting the pop-up anymore, but the active page is still reverting to an hours-old version every time I go back to it. If I refresh it does go to the current version. Then I click on a thread, then hit back to go to active, and it's the old version again!
Thanks for trying to fix it 😊

Pixiedust1234 · 25/03/2023 14:55

Clicking back on browser to return to the Active threads list.

Samsung tablet using chrome.

DeltaAlphaDelta79 · 25/03/2023 13:58

I dont use the back button. I go onto active, go into a thread then click active again.

CollieFIower · 25/03/2023 13:50

Also here

Galaxy S10

Latest version of Chrome

I click from active convos to read a thread, then use my phone's back button to go back to active convos, and instead get taken to an hours old page with a "page expired" pop up

Showing all posts at once but I don't get how that would make a difference!

Thanks, everyone. We're looking into this now. Are you clicking back on your browser when this happens? And are you going back to Active or another page? (The more information we have as to what you're doing when you see the notification the faster we should be able to sort it out).

If you've not already, please tell us which device and browser you're using.

Yes, the active board isn't updating.

Pixiedust1234 · 25/03/2023 11:10

I've literally just had the expired page pop up too. Last night every time I came out of a thread the active board had reverted back to several hours previously, including showing threads I had hidden.

CanadianJohn · 25/03/2023 02:06

I'm getting the "expired page" notification also, only on Active. Chrome on a laptop.

I'm also getting this on my phone and my laptop. 100 threads per page.

Emilyanna · 24/03/2023 20:58

I'm getting the same pop-up as 60smusic. Viewing 100 posts on the Active page.

LilyMumsnet · 24/03/2023 19:44

Can we also check how many posts per page you're viewing?

I'm getting this since last night. Didn't post as no one else did so thought it was my phone. It's still happening. I've everything up to date, cache cleared etc. When I clear my cache it is fine for 10 - 15 mins then starts again. It happens when I click a post to read and then click the back button.

Me too, just started this morning. Clearing cache and restarting phone didn't help.

Is it the session expired popup that you're seeing?
