For months, whenever I am on the site it repeatedly crashes back to the home page. It happens when I click on a new topics, when I try to login, when I post...almost every time I do anything. Never have this problem on a laptop and it doesn't happen with other sites. Anyone else have this issue? If so, any way to fix? I shut down regularly so that isn't the issue. Thanks.

Have you tried clearing your history cookies?

IUseAnyName · 26/06/2015 20:15

Are you on private browsing?

TalcAndTurnips · 26/06/2015 20:19

I don't have that problem but when MNing on the iPad my keyboard pops up and down like a floozie's drawers. Then the Google app throws me out on the street without warning.

It drives me nuts. Mind you, my IPad is very old indeed and stuffed to the gunnels with photos and inane games.

Mine does this too- will try clearing cookies

JessicaRebeccaRabbit · 26/06/2015 20:21

Thanks, cleared cookie and history. No improvement unfortunately.
What is private browsing?
Ipad is not that old, has fairly small number of pics etc, and it doesn't happen with other sites.

Same happens to mine. There's a big thread on Site Stuff with updates from tech which I discovered the other day after thinking for ages my iPad was on the blink!

magicstar1 · 26/06/2015 20:25

Works perfectly on mine

TulipsAndSwifts · 26/06/2015 20:28

It does it on a brand new iPad too. Guardian and Mumsnet the only sites which crash and instant eviction.

I find I get chucked out when I'm on Talk and someone adds a post to the thread I'm viewing.

cozietoesie · 26/06/2015 20:33

Are you using Safari or the App?

redbinneo · 26/06/2015 20:33

Works fine on my old fashioned PC.

NewFlipFlops · 26/06/2015 20:46

YANBU, it's a fairly recent thing isn't it, and bloody annoying!

MomOfTwoGirls2 · 26/06/2015 20:55

Happens to me on iPad too. Seriously annoying.

RoadRunner123 · 26/06/2015 20:57

Happens to me too. Very annoying.

YellowYoYoYam · 26/06/2015 20:59

Yup me too. I have an iPad mini so I'm just using the mobile site now. Don't like it so much.

NewsreaderChic · 26/06/2015 21:01

No problems here, on an iPad using Safari.

JessicaRebeccaRabbit · 26/06/2015 21:02

Thanks. Read the link but still not working. Very surprised it has not been cleared up...hopefully they fix it soon as it is driving me crazy!

Mine's glitchy too (iPad)

IUseAnyName · 26/06/2015 21:04

I found that i had to relog in everytime i wanted to post something, and it would always take me to the home page. I realised it was because I was in private browsing, which doesnt remember any of your login details for any sites.
Swipe screen, Press the square in bottom right corner, when the multiple web pages comes up there is a private button bottom left. Pressing this switches between private and non private browsing x

TheAuthoress · 26/06/2015 21:04

Me too. Sometimes I can't read any threads as it crashes when I try to open them, and after trying about 5 times I just give up! Mines a 1.5 year old iPad Air.

JessicaRebeccaRabbit · 26/06/2015 21:12

Grrr, changed the privacy thing, still happening.
