Error codes everywhere?

I'm getting 400 error codes for every page of MN unless I switch to incognito.

This after the debacle that lasted about two weeks recently...What's going on?

Users shouldn't have frequently clear their cache (which I am not sure how to do anyway). I see pps are saying it's only a temporary fix anyway.

This is ridiculous. Please sort it, Mumsnet HQ!

Clearing cache only worked for me when I cleared the last 7 days data. Not just 15mins/hour.

I am getting this on my android phone. I would look on Mumsnet a LOT throughout the day, but now it only works on the first page or 2 and then I get the 400 bad gateway message. Mumsnet has become unusable on my phone (I'm on my laptop right now). I am reduced to looking on Reddit. Help!

Other popular websites don't seem to get these problems?

Happened to me 2 days ago and today, only on MN, Chrome. Cleared cache/cookies for last hour which worked for me but this does seem to be a widespread issue.

@LilyMumsnet this doesn't work. I must have cleared my cache, browsing history and files/images 5 or 6 times yesterday. It allowed me to access my active list but as soon as I clicked on a thread, it was back to the 400 error.
This isn't good enough

Hi OP

Please can you clear your cache for Mumsnet? This tends to sort it right away. Let us know if you need instructions.

@LilyMumsnet I feel like an idiot but yes please. I know I should be able to do this! But I've done a hard clear cache of all my websites, problem's returned, I don't really want to do that again, and I can't figure out how to clear the cache from one domain within Chrome especially when I can't open it outside of incognito.

Having cleared my cache yesterday I'm now getting the same thing this morning. Do we just have to clear the cache every time we want to look at Mumsnet now?

I had the same and had to clear my cache.

I had this last week. I was advised to "clear my cache" but had no idea what that meant and it seems to have sorted itself out.

JustAMiddleAgedDirtBagBaby · 11/05/2026 14:05

I was getting the same last night and this morning but I've deleted cookies, cleared my cache etc which seems to have helped.
