Pages constantly reloading

Driving me a bit bananas. On any thread, several times in a few minutes it’ll reload the page and quite often get this timeout

Pages constantly reloading
OP posts:
New posts on this thread. Refresh page

That’s the most frustrating part. It seems to happen more when you’re near the bottom of a page as well.

Rinoachicken · 04/09/2024 20:12

It happens about every 30seconds for me - and each time it does it scrolls me all the back to the top of the thread

Did this ever get fixed? I am still having this problem and it’s just getting so unusable now because of it. Are others still having this problem?

Having the same problem here. I’ve just inherited my husband’s old iPad, and the page refresh due to an unspecified error happens a couple of times an hour on Safari. Chrome and Firefox are worse - no error messages, they’ll just freeze at random times. I don’t have any problem with Firefox and Chrome on my ancient desktop.

No but I have to remember to delete my search history on Google and chrome,, otherwise it starts again.

I definitely think it's worse now.

LoobyDoop2 · 03/06/2024 20:14

Well, I crumbled and cleared all my history (meaning I had to set up a whole new account, because Mumsnet’s piss poor security meant I used a throwaway email address for my last one and couldn’t get a password reset when I was logged out) and can confirm it makes absolutely no difference. Pages are very slightly faster to load, but I’ve still had it reload a couple of times in half an hour.

I don't use the app if there's one. Perhaps delete the app, clear history and just Google.

Who are you talking to?

This is still happening for me. It’s driving me bonkers. I’m already reading posts and the bloody page refreshes.

Me too. It's dire. Clearing history never worked for me.

justasking111 · 15/05/2024 08:37

I'm now clearing my history regularly and it's settled down.

This is worse than ever for me at the moment. Every single time I open a board or a thread.

SamWinchestersHair · 24/04/2024 22:12

@DawnMumsnet @HebeMumsnet @LilyMumsnet

is anything being done to resolve this? It’s unusable at certain times! You have even had people further up the thread tell you what the issue is

BoudiccaOfSuburbia · 15/04/2024 18:01

This drives me mad.

And it has been a problem since the last big site rebuild.

So many posts lost to page re-loads.

Why can your ads re-load independently to the threads and posts ? (I know nothing about websites but it always seems to be down to ads changing / loading).

Numerous threads complaining, someone from HQ always asks for device and browser, and nothing changes.

Grumpy, iPhone Safari.

Chemenger · 15/04/2024 17:29

I had this (iPhone and Safari), it completely went away when I rejected all cookies (along with the nine million promoted threads that were so irritating).

I don't want to clear my cache, last time I did it for an MN fix I lost all my saved passwords and couldn't log in anywhere, it was extremely inconvenient.

I don't clear my entire cache, just MN cookies through the settings menu on my phone.

HebeMumsnet · 15/04/2024 09:50

Thanks for the further info, everyone. We'll feed all this back and will come back to you when there's any further news.

@HebeMumsnet reporting back, since clearing website data and rejecting all cookies as mentioned last week the problem has completely gone away (iphone on safari, up to date ios, no ad blocker, no private browsing).

This....every few minutes. At least it is shortening my time on here.

Same here. Tablet /chrome

NoWordForFluffy · 13/04/2024 11:46

That's really interesting, @SomethingFun.

SomethingFun · 13/04/2024 11:20

I’m running a chat thread on my laptop in safari with developer tools open and the network tab. The amount of calls is unbelievable for a static text based website. I’m not doing anything at all and I’m watching everything just go up and up 😁 Each page is using more and more memory and doing more and more redirects for every second it is opened so phone browsers won’t be able to handle that and will crash and reload the page and then it starts again. Whatever primis.tech is needs a redesign!

Anewuser · 13/04/2024 07:57

This is so frustrating.

No Adblocker. Using an iPad.

Only happens on mumsnet.

Comes up having problems loading or freezes.

Getting to the point where I’ll probably stop looking at mumsnet. I can’t be the only person thinking that.

No, Apple too.
