Mumsnet pages too wide for my phone!

Horsemad · 22/12/2012 09:49

Have been reading the site very successfully on my Android phone but suddenly, the pages don't seem to fit? I'm having to scroll across the page to read which didn't seem to happen before.

What's happened?!

Three cheers for Tech Thanks

Tech · 23/12/2012 13:48

Oh you know (blush.) Is it still ok now?

SledYuleCated · 23/12/2012 13:51

Um, it's actually just got worse Xmas Blush

Threads I'm On and Active are fine, actual threads are hideously wide.

SledYuleCated · 23/12/2012 13:53

Ooh, under the advert bar at the top there is a very small thin line. That is going the whole way across the extra wide bit.

SledYuleCated · 23/12/2012 13:54

And Active and Threads I'm On aren't ok...

Tech · 23/12/2012 13:56

Yes that's deliberate. It's slightly difficult to explain, but what's supposed to happen is that your phone spots that that line is the widest thing on the page then scales the page to fit it across the width of the phone. It sounds like some android phones aren't doing that. I thought we'd fixed it, but maybe not.

So is everything wide for you sled?

Tech · 23/12/2012 14:02

OK. This should be OK again now.

SledYuleCated · 23/12/2012 14:07

Ok. Seems to be better. Threads Im On is still a bit wide, but not as cavernous as before. Normal thread pages seem ok. There don't seem to be any adverts though... Not sure if that's intentional?

SledYuleCated · 23/12/2012 14:07

And I'm on an iPhone, if that helps!

5madthings · 23/12/2012 14:35
