Bookmarks not working

As per title.

I’m clicking on threads I know I’ve bookmarked but getting taken to opening post not the bookmarked one.

Have tried clearing cookies and signing in again but still happening (safari on iph) only noticed it yesterday after not being on for a few days.

(aka I haven’t searched for another thread on this because it’s half seven & I’m feeling grumpy 😂)

I’m now being taken to the end of the page again again instead of the top.

Mobile site. iPhone, safari.

Datun · 06/10/2024 19:23

Yeah, mine's gone again now too. Ignores bookmark entirely.

Grrrpredictivetex · 06/10/2024 11:14

iPhone 14 on app. I reported this last year still doesn't work.

This is still a problem for me. It’s been doing it for the last few days. I’ve tried clearing my cache but it’s still not working for some threads. “Oh my giddy god” thread is a prime example. I’ve tried clearing the bookmark and resetting it, but it still takes me back to way up the page from where I bookmarked it.

Using Safari on iPad.

I’m using safari on iPad too.

I haven’t had the bookmark issue again but pages are still occasionally: white screen, reload, OP, white screen again and then bookmark.

’occasionally’ in this instance being at least once per session spent on MN that lasts more than 15-20mins.

Can’t say I’ve noticed it more on particular threads, any threads with 500+ posts are pita to load so I’ve avoided them for quite some time already.

I’m still getting this issue, I’ve had it over a month.

I’ve just cleared my cache and it’s exactly the same. It’s taking me lots of posts above my bookmarked post on the Christmas bargains thread, making it a pain to find.

Hello!

If there are any lingering issues, it's worth clearing your cache on Mumsnet just to refresh things. Can you give this a go?

Hi Lily

Success! Brilliant. Thank you

I'm being taken to the post above the bookmark, but at least it's consistent so that's a bonus.

Datun · 26/09/2024 11:32

Brings me back to the one below my bookmark. But I'll take that!

Datun · 26/09/2024 11:32

I'll test again

Working mostly fine for me now but white flashy screen followed by leap back to opening post is still happening occasionally

4 times so far this morning on threads plus 2 reloads of active page

OP posts:
AutumnCrow · 26/09/2024 03:10

It seems to be working ok now on mobile. I hope it lasts!

Datun · 26/09/2024 00:21

Now it takes me to the third post from the bottom.

Datun · 26/09/2024 00:20

Testing...

Datun · 25/09/2024 16:06

Sorry HQ, I know this might a bit farcical now, but I'm being taken to the very bottom of every thread now. Where you start to write a post.

You're right! I just read to the end of a Page 5 on a thread, clicked on '6', and was taken straight to the bottom of Page 6.

And this was on my laptop, on the Desktop site. Crikey.

Like Datun, I'm being taken to a couple of posts before my bookmark, not to the bookmarked post. Which is weird. So you don't really know where you are.

I've had this issue since before the crashing / freezing issue! The site has been glitchy for various reasons for months on end.

Oh, same. It was anyone's guess whether I'd get to my actual bookmark.

I've just done a quick test.

Still sucking my battery dry trying to fill all those advertising blocks.

Datun · 25/09/2024 13:20

Okay, so this time it doesn't take me to the top of the thread, nor no does it take me to my bookmark. It's sort of hovers in the vicinity of the end of the thread

Datun · 25/09/2024 13:19

Just testing

😂@AutumnCrow I thought the battery was just a losing track of time on MN issue but now you mention it I didn’t have to charge it yesterday when avoiding MN!

@BeckyAMumsnet it’s still hit and miss this last hour for me too - do we need to clear cookies or log out & back in or anything for the full fix?
