The last couple of days when I look at Active, or any other section (Gardening, Site Stuff etc) every time I come out of a thread it takes me back to the top, so I then have to scroll past all the threads I've read to get back to where I was. It's very annoying, could you fix it please? Grin I'm on an Android phone, using the desktop site.

Seems to have cleared up for me now. Thank you!

I’m still having the exact same problem after clearing my cache. It’s so annoying- making it almost impossible to read threads

Have you tried closing the app/that tab and reloading the app/your browser as well?

Seemed to be working for me for about 30 mins this evening but back to opening on random pages far away from the last post I read! So annoyed.

Great can back to decent bit of scrolling 😁👍

Ihateslugs · 23/09/2025 18:06

Thank you for sorting this, whatever you have done has fixed the problem for me.

Hi all

Thanks so much for your patience. This is now fixed but if you find you're still having issues, please do try clearing your cache - this will likely sort it. Please let us know if you have any further issues/need help clearing your cache.

Pippadeck · 23/09/2025 16:24

Miraculous! Required clearing the cache and I can't believe how long it's taken them to fix this, but thank you MN for finally sorting that annoying bug out.

RaventheBrave · 23/09/2025 13:49

Yep. Seems to be working for me as well🤞🏻

Cancelthecake · 23/09/2025 13:05

Don't want to get anyone's hopes up, but it seems to be working properly for me now.

They need to sack their development team. There should be a simple line of code which returns you to where you were previously and some idiot has either deleted it or introduced an error in the code.

At one point in my career I was a software tester and it's very common for software to work perfectly on the developers machine but not when it's installed on a 'clean' machine which doesn't have all the developers software on it - it's poor testing practice from the development team but Mumsnet obviously don't care.

Snackpocket · 23/09/2025 09:01

Yep this happens to me too. Using chrome or safari on iPhone. It looks to me an issue with adverts loading, causing the page to refresh. Despite the money mumsnet makes from ads they don’t seem to want to spend any of it on making sure those ads don’t make the site hard to use!

hanahsaunt · 23/09/2025 08:48

I don't care about the colour. I care very much about the infuriating return to the top issue.

Dogsrfunny · 23/09/2025 08:40

Please fix this

Giggorata · 23/09/2025 08:15

I'm addding my voice to the chorus of righteous indignation about always returning to the top of the threads. It is making this site unusable, together with taking ages to load, and then reloading, due to glitches, presumably because of the ads.
I am less keen to click on threads or comment, as it is often not worth the bother.
Changing the colours seems like rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic

MsAdoraBelleDearheartVonLipwig · 22/09/2025 21:01

Come on @MNHQ, this is getting boring. I’ve just signed up to pay £3 a month to get rid of the ads, now I’ve got bloody pages jumping around. I don’t know what’s more irritating. I’ll be wanting that money refunded, I’m close to giving up.

CameForAVacationStayedForTheRevolution · 22/09/2025 14:57

They know all about it, there’s another thread which is months old detailing the same issue. They’ve given up even pretending they’re interested and are just ignoring us now. Don’t expect it to be fixed.

Gladysknightjustwalkinmyshoes · 22/09/2025 14:54

It a pita then trying to find the next thread you were going to look at it and it's moved position..🤯🤯

SmugglersHaunt · 22/09/2025 12:26

Me too! Safari on an iPhone

Seeline · 22/09/2025 12:04

@HebeMumsnet @JoMumsnet

Just a reminder that we're still here (at the moment).

This has been going on for much longer than everything you introduced last week and really needs sorting out.

Mrsmunchofmunchington · 21/09/2025 19:02

Why is nobody responding?
Do you want people so fed up that they stop using the site?

Sasssquatch · 21/09/2025 08:47

Adding my voice to the many. Clicking back into the active list, only to be taken to the top of the list is bollocks.

Saponarium · 20/09/2025 19:22

Any updates on this? Do we know when it will be fixed?

Ihateslugs · 20/09/2025 11:06

Iwishthiswasnottrue · 20/09/2025 00:56

The Blue is horrible and the pink is absolutely vile!
Just fix the problems please!

Agree, I much prefer the original colours!

Any update @HebeMumsnet ? It really is making Mumsnet unusable, and fannying about with the colours while people can't actually navigate the site properly is just rubbing salt in the wound!
