Posts appearing twice using blackberry

I'm a semi-regular poster on conception 40 plus thread - and when I log in from my phone (blackberry) to add to the thread, it posts twice. Not a huge problem, but would like to know if it can be fixed. Be interesting to see if this post now appears twice as using phone to add this.

Hi KK, at the top of the page on the mobile site there are some purple buttons. The right-most of these - Desktop site - will take you to the full version. That's interesting that the error ony happens on the mobile version - I hadn't realised that.

Sorry, just realised I didn't answer your actual question. We sadly haven't been able to do fix this yet as you've no doubt seen. It should be within the next ten days or so. Sorry for the delay....

Huh! I posted this same question here months ago and never got a reply.

Glad to see you're investigating now though.

Thanks tech. good to know you're working on a fix for the double posting. Sorry to be a pain in the proverbial, but there's no purple buttons at the top of my screen. Looks like I'm missing some of the screen at the top - just above the mumsnet logo, I can only see half of the advertisement above it. Some of the ad is off the screen both vertically and horizontally which makes me think the purple buttons are also off the screen too. Bloody blackberries. Useless.

We just need Chaos to post here on her 'smart' phone Grin

Right.....have managed to change to desk top site by switching my -fecking useless- blackberry to column view (rather than page view). Testing testing....

Flipping heck it worked!!!!! Grin. It might be about 20 times slower than using the mobile site on this particularly wonderful device, but I will no longer look like a complete eejit on threads who can't control the post button!

It'd still be marvellous for a fix for the mobile site when you get the chance. The loading of pages on this is painfully slow....

It was me that suggested it may be something to do with mobile app. If it is do I get a prize?

Anyway, on blackberry on regular thingy not app....

Testing...

ValiumQueen · 13/07/2012 17:56

She shoots, she scores, or have you fixed it already? Very funny thread btw!

knickyknocks · 13/07/2012 18:03

Ooh VQ should definitely get a prize MNHQ! I'm going to make sure I switch to the mobile site when I feel particularly strongly about something Grin.

Check me out my posts are only appearing once! YIPPEEEEEEE

Only joking!

This thread is hilarious, for non-Blackberry users...

BonkeyMollocks · 13/07/2012 21:49

Love this thread! Grin

TheOneWithTheHair · 13/07/2012 21:51

Oh my god my eyesight needs checking after trying to read this thread. It's hilarious. Grin

Have any of you seen the chaos when Chaos posts from her phone? It posts about 27 times. Tis very funny.

ValiumQueen · 13/07/2012 21:51

The chaos one was fab!

A year ago, almost to the day, I started a thread about BBs double posting and suggested it was a problem with m.mumsnet and got no response.

ValiumQueen · 14/07/2012 10:38

Can you link to it? Was it in chat? If so, they go after so long I think.

Quenelle · 14/07/2012 11:22

Was in Site Stuff end of June last year. I found it yesterday on my PC but losing will to live trying Search on my BB. It hardly matters now anyway.

Still not fixed then?

You are not invisible btw - indeed I can see two of you!

TheOneWithTheHair · 14/07/2012 11:45

Grin @ Vallium. I can see two of Quenelle too.

ValiumQueen · 14/07/2012 11:52
