Hey, where have the puzzles gone? It's been replaced by Black Friday. Is it coming back?

@tribpot it's strange, because they're definitely still there for some of us!

Could those of you who are seeing broken links please let us know which device and browser and version of the site you're using, so we can see where the problem lies?

Thanks in advance.

ios. Code word has not worked for a few days.

But you're aware the puzzles are broken @JoMumsnet ?

Which version of the site are you using, @Lazysundayafternoon2024 ?

If you're on the desktop site, underneath the main banner there's a blue bar with various drop-down menus - Talk, Pregnancy & Baby etc. If you click on the one that says More you'll be able to access Puzzles.

On the mobile site, click on the three vertical lines at the top left of the home screen, then click on More, then scroll down to Puzzles.

(Or use the bookmark that NunyaBeeswax has helpfully added) Smile

We'll find out if Puzzles will be returning to the navigation bar and let you know as soon as possible...

I use the app so I didn't even know MN had its own puzzles.

tribpot · 02/11/2024 09:35

For anyone on LinkedIn, they've got some good daily puzzles as well (that work!)

Puzzles have been broken for a couple of days, unclear if MN even know?

However, this led me to find out where the content is sourced from - https://business.puzzler.com/examples/

You will get an ad about how you can drive traffic to your website if you use their puzzles, but they're all there and more besides.

This is a great find, thanks heaps. FYI I emailed the powers that be early this morning, but was only on the generic “contact us” email

Same.

Squareroot · 02/11/2024 08:09

It’s all gone wrong since the IT folk have changed the settings promoting bloody Black Friday. Just says “oops, something’s gone wrong”. Now can’t get my daily fix of codeword!

GrumpyFrownFace · 02/11/2024 07:51

Great thanks!

NunyaBeeswax · 02/11/2024 07:41

They should make a board to discuss the daily puzzles and put a link to the puzzles at the top of it.

NunyaBeeswax · 02/11/2024 07:40

On mobile, I press three lines on top left.
Scroll down.
Tap 'more'
Under 'most popular'
Tap 'Puzzles'

Here's the Bookmark :

Is there no way of putting black Friday somewhere else, we miss the puzzles.
