Option to see 25 posts per page has gone.

I can only see lots of posts with an option to load more.

On safari, iPhone 6, customised settings are set to 25 per page.

Hello, not sure if this thread is still being monitored, but please could you remove me from test group too? I really hate it (and bookmarking is just too much of a faff). Thank you 😊

Paul2023 · 14/04/2025 19:14

Can I please be removed from this endless scrolling and have the option of 25 pages back ?

KellyMumsnet · 14/04/2025 12:30

Hi again @aiskabash . Ah, apologies - we hadn't realised you were talking about the app here. The app is and always has been 'infinite scroll'. Pages aren't recognised in the app we're afraid.

But we have taken you out of the test group so if you want to use the main site on your phone rather than the app you'll be able to choose how many pages you want to see in your settings.

HellDorado · 14/04/2025 10:55

@KellyMumsnet Can I ask what it is you’re still testing? The “No” vote seems fairly unanimous!

KellyMumsnet · 14/04/2025 10:41

Morning, everyone. We've got a list of everyone who has asked to be removed since we last posted and we'll get you taken off as soon as possible.

@aiskabash Can we ask if you're still on the infinite scrolling as far as you can tell? We've removed you from the test group more than once but it sounds like you're still there. We have had this difficulty with a couple of users but have got there in the end. Let us know how it is for you now and we'll take another look if necessary. Thanks for your patience.

@KellyMumsnet. Yes, still infinite scrolling on the app.

I don't understand why anyone would want 25 posts per page, to be honest. I find it really annoying having to keep reloading or having to look through loads of pages if I want to find a particular post. Scrolling down isn't a problem, you can just hit control and end together.

Have you tried it on mobile? The scrolling version is impossible to use in my phone’s browser app

FatsiaJaponicaInTheGarden · 14/04/2025 06:46

If you don't understand - maybe try reading some of the 12 pages (!) from people who hate it. That might help your understanding even if your preference is different.

I'm so glad j got pages back!!!

Why on earth did Mumsnet trial this getting rid of the 25 pages ? How does scrolling down endlessly make it enjoyable or useful to us?

I'm still seeing the infinite scrolling. Now I know it's because I'm in a test group and not just a dreadful decision that everyone had been subjected to by your design team it's even more frustrating. I'm getting more and more annoyed at this mess and want to leave the site over it. Please remove me and reinstate the page system.

I completely agree, I have asked several times to be removed from the test group, it is so frustrating! Do we need to start a new thread just to get something done about it?!

@KellyMumsnet @SueMumsnet @BeckyAMumsnet please take me out of the test group. This is incredibly frustrating.

@KellyMumsnet@SueMumsnet
@BeckyAMumsnet
Please take me out as well. This really is ridiculous that I have to keep asking over and over again and it never gets resolved.

MariaDingbat · 11/04/2025 14:30

Can I please be removed from the test group and have my account moved back to the paginated version? I really dislike the infinite scrolling, it makes it much harder to navigate the threads and means I end up leaving threads and not engaging with the site. I would have appreciated a heads up that I was being placed in a test group and how to opt out instead of being left to struggle with a frustrating and unnecessary change.

Hi @KellyMumsnet

I am still scrolling. Is there any way I can change the settings?

@KellyMumsnet
Please sort this out. Hello?

Biker47 · 01/04/2025 11:41

BeckyAMumsnet · 05/03/2025 11:42

Hello @EarsUpTailUp thanks for posting - you're seeing this because we are currently testing a new way of scrolling through threads, and would appreciate any feedback you may have. Thanks.

This is happening to me, and in short; it's fucking shite.

Blackbirdsingssongs · 28/03/2025 17:12

@KellyMumsnet I would like removing from test group.
Do I email because I name change a lot.

aiskabash · 28/03/2025 15:28

aiskabash · 26/03/2025 18:03

Hi,
Could I ask where in the app settings is the set the posts to 25 (or other number)? I had a look but can’t see it.

Thank you.

AuntyAgony · 28/03/2025 12:10

@KellyMumsnet Same here. Can I please be removed? Thanks!

Sleeeeep · 28/03/2025 06:41

@KellyMumsnet I still haven’t been removed from the group and still have to scroll, please can you look at this?

Blackbirdsingssongs · 27/03/2025 20:16

If I’m on the test group, I want to be removed.
If not this help me getting off mumsnet and doing something better with my time.
I bloody hate it, it took 5 minutes of swiping to get to end!

KellyMumsnet · 26/03/2025 10:11

Hi again @aiskabash . This is really strange. We've just double checked and you are definitely removed from the test group so shouldn't be seeing the 'infinite scroll' style threads. Can we ask you first to just have a look at your own settings and check they are set at 50 posts per page (or however you like them) and that you've scrolled down and saved that preference? Actually, it might be worth changing the preference on pages per thread, saving, seeing if that works, and then changing the preference back and saving again, just to see if those preferences are working correctly.

If all that seems to be in order, could you send us a screen video? You can email it to [email protected] if you prefer and just mark it 'infinite scroll test group issue'. You can even just use your phone to video it on your computer if that's easier than doing an actual screen video. It would just be useful to see exactly what's happening so we can get it sorted for you.

Thank you!
