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.

@JoMumsnet

It's been over a week since this issue was first raised here (and it was definitely happening before that). It's a fairly basic function of the site. I see there is a banner asking for feedback on the new homepage (I don't even know where the homepage is?) Instead of tinkering about with the homepage, maybe MN could direct their energy into making the site usable again? Please?

Having the same problem. Chrome on a Samsung Phone.

Any update?

Saponarium · 15/09/2025 13:33

Sooo keen for this to be fixed..

Ksibeij · 14/09/2025 22:54

Ah an update! Thanks, at least it's being worked on
Please do sort it and do come back to us to update, @JoMumsnet

Hi again, we're sorry that this is impacting many of you. We're still working on a fix and will be back with an update as soon as we can.

Ksibeij · 14/09/2025 14:49

Still happening and no response from @MNHQ ? So crap. I really can't be bothered to use MN like this

Londonnight · 14/09/2025 06:12

This is happening to me too!! Chrome on laptop. It's really, really annoying to keep going back to the top each time. As someone else pointed out, it's like reading a book which goes back to the beginning each time you turn a page. Not good enough!
Why isn't this being fixed @MNHQ?

Iwishthiswasnottrue · 14/09/2025 03:39

Why hasn't this been fixed?

Between the video ads and this, the site is rapidly becoming unusable. And every time these issues are raised, we get fobbed off with "we're looking into it" and then nothing changes. I can't be the only one who's thinking about just not bothering in future and going elsewhere.

You're not.
I've barely been on the site in days as it's so frustrating.

It's like reading a book and every time you turn the page you are back to the beginning of the book again.

Pretty poor that this is still going on and no updates from @MNHQ.

Ksibeij · 13/09/2025 10:10

I'm.a long term user of MN, the discussions are what keeps me here but I've never known another website to have so many continual glitches and issues.
Come on @MNHQ please address this very annoying issue..it's still happening and makes using the site very frustrating

MagpiePi · 13/09/2025 08:08

I was thinking of reporting this too. Along with the slow time to load the site, slow time to load threads, (I assume because of the adverts) flicking back up to the top of the thread when adverts are loading, the advert that slides down and covers the top third of the screen. Bloody annoying adverts. I get that you’ve decided to go full on with advertising but can’t you make them less disruptive?

iphone on chrome and Mac with Firefox.
At least with Firefox you don’t get adverts!

Agreed it really is a pita
Come on MNHQ get it sorted!!

Same here when I use my phone. On my laptop it's fine because I open threads in a new tab.

Tell you what frustrates me about Mumsnet nowadays. They never reply. It’s been days of people reporting this. It’s not like the ad issue where they’ve made a decision and are going to stick to it no matter whether people dislike it - this is a simple glitch that has happened before and can be fixed. Mumsnet used to appear to monitor Site Stuff and respond but it’s been days and… nada. Kinda shows what they think of their users nowadays.

It really shows how little they care about the users of the site. It no longer seems to matter if the site is user friendly

Ksibeij · 12/09/2025 19:34

Yes same. It's very annoying. Android phone, mobile site.

Still not sorted, how long does it take?

DirtyBird · 12/09/2025 12:18

This is happening to me as well

squashyhat · 12/09/2025 12:00

MNHQ any progress? This is still happening.

RozGruber · 11/09/2025 23:26

Me too! Sometimes I open them in a new tab but honestly it's just too annoying. I should be spending less time on MN anyway.

RockyRogue1001 · 11/09/2025 17:35

Agree with all of you.
And it is bloody annoying
Also on an android

Android, Google
