We've just done a new code release and there are a few issuettes - we'll work through them.

Do refresh your pages though - that gets rid of most of the problems (though not all).

Firefox & Classic.

I am lying on the floor sobbing because I dont like it.
Give me back my old MN, not the old one from ages ago but the last old one.
I dont care if it works on peoples phones. I dont have one.

Please give it back.
Please.

The bit in 'I'm watching' where it would show each post that's appeared since you last clicked 'watch' has gone so now I don't know which threads have been added to since I last looked.

And please bring back the envelope and clipboard pictures, they were so much nicer than blue writing

Firefox, classic.

Littlefish · 28/10/2009 21:27

Threads I've been on don't turn purple anymore. I'm running on Firefox.

If I run on Internet Explorer, there is loads of white space at the top of every thread, so I have to scroll down miles to see the first message.

scrappydappydoo · 28/10/2009 21:26

I just have a massive white space at the top and I have to scroll all the way down to read a thread or topics/threads.
I'm on new and not techie so don't know anything else

MyCatsAScarierBastardThanYours · 28/10/2009 21:25

I'm OK with changes BUT I am getting a bit annoyed that the colour doesn't change on a thread title once I've been on it - used to go purple. I know I should remember what I've read, but I'm a mum of 2 young children and nearing 40 fgs - I left my brain and memory in the delivery suite.

Please bring it back

francaghostohollywood · 28/10/2009 21:23

Yes, thanks Helen, I realized that
But you can't deny that the little envelope was much better. ANd the exclamation mark and the profile...

RustyBat · 28/10/2009 21:22

Dwayne - have you tried clicking on By Keyword?- I get the search boxes when I do that.
By Time (which used to be in the right) is now underneath the white space.

cakeforbrains · 28/10/2009 21:20

'last 15mins' and 'last hour' are not working. and its all confusing and scary

I don't like New being thrust on me either. And I'm normally alright with thrusting.

JesusChristOtterStar · 28/10/2009 21:12

what was wrong with little images? sweet envelope - dainty clipboard attention seeking exclamation mark

colour

now all blue and sad

Emprexia · 28/10/2009 21:11

and all the purple buttons are squiffy.

Oh, and the menu at the top, there is a step after "travel" so the last two menu options are in a thinner section.

Franca - the little envelope is now the 'Contact poster' link.

IdrisTheDragon · 28/10/2009 21:11

Not too bad on iPod touch. But still don't like the feeling of New being thrust upon me.

francaghostohollywood · 28/10/2009 21:10

I'm on MN Classic, Safari.

Threads I'm on is all weird. And I want the little envelope, where's the envelope gone, give it back!

Emprexia · 28/10/2009 21:09

IE8
Mumsnet New.

All my threads have been shunted down so nothing starts until we get underneath the Recipe of the week.

Its ALLLLL big white space.
Even the forum header thats blue is shunted down.

i cant see my nickname and password under the post box because they've been blended with the "to post a message" blurb

AllGoneSouth · 28/10/2009 21:07

The threads I've clicked on used to turn purple but now stay blue so I forget where I've been poking about taking an interest .

I'm on Firefox and don't know how to tell if new or classic view

Doodleydoo · 28/10/2009 21:05

Get bigtech working again quicksmart! no like it!!!!!

BloodRedTulips · 28/10/2009 21:05

eerily white and oddly speced here too.... not liking it one bit

SquIDGEyeyeballs · 28/10/2009 21:04

Oh forgot to say I'm on Firefox, classic view.

SquIDGEyeyeballs · 28/10/2009 21:03

Arrghhh! What's happened?

Right for me I have:

  1. small black font
  2. some posters name banners are black and underlined, and some are blue and not underlined.
  3. 'threads I'm on' just looks really odd.#
  4. in active convos, thread text is black and I'm sure it used to be blue.
  5. the 'add message/report/contact poster' looks very cluttered.

Please put it back, pleeeassseee

duckyfuzz · 28/10/2009 21:02

MN new using IE and massive gap at the top, the length of all the ads down the right hand side, yuk!

Botbot · 28/10/2009 21:00

I can't get Sober Workplace. Which is fine right now, but could be problematic tomorrow, in my workplace

Evening

Sorry that some things aren't working properly/have changed/don't look right - BigTech is sobbing quietly in the remote corner of the Shed to which he has been banished till he is APOLOGISES PROPERLY.

When he does, we might tell him that some people like the way it looks on iPhone now - but only if he's really sincere...

In the meantime, here's a little summary of where (we think) we're at and what needs fixing:

  1. MN Classic: last poster's name not showing in Active Convos. Yep, mistake noted - we're working to fix that.
  1. Mumsnet Talk box not retracting when you open a thread, so continuing to display Most Active convos. Yep, mistake noted - we're working to fix that.
  1. Add message/Report post/Contact poster links dropping down into message line. Yep. This is happening to me, too, but BigTech said it was just me - so feel rather vindicated now! Will report this.
  1. Search not working. Thanks - we didn't know that - we'll take a look.
  1. MN Classic: Threads I'm On not showing enough posts. Noted - will find out what BigTech was intending...
  1. Notes on top of threads in Health etc: warning sign overwritten by text. Thanks - we didn't know that - we'll take a look.
  1. Weird stuff happening at the bottom of each page if you are reading threads as pages. Thanks - we didn't know that - we'll take a look.

Do let us know if there's anything we've missed.

JackBauer's username is appearing differently at the top of her posts. It's in black and underlined, everyone else is blue.
