On the mobile site, I often tap on a thread but the one that opens is 2-3 lines higher.

Does that make sense? So there will be a list of Active threads:

AIBU to think pigs can fly?

Help with Potty training

Oh no, I'm covered in bees!

I'll click on "Bees" and it will take me to "pigs". I don't always notice straight away either. It's really annoying! The page isn't even jumping unless it happens in the split second that I click every time.

I am using android 5.1.1, standard Samsung browser.

It happens to me on the mobile site. I'm using a kindle fire

I've not changed how I use mumsnet and this had only started since the last update with the font. On ipad accessing via website not app.

I don't think it's any particular ad Becca, it's not an intermittent issue, it's literally 100% of the time I'm on the mobile site. I'll try it on mobile Firefox later with an adblocker if that'd be helpful data.

Happens a lot for me too using chrome on Android. Nearly always takes me to a sponsored thread

Same as secretspy here - chrome/android (on tablet, so not so much of a fat finger issue) and I seem to end up opening a lot lof sponsored threads I have no interest in...

It happens to me too. It's always the wrong one which opens.

Yep, thought it was just my shitty phone! Also using the mobile site on android

Has this been fixed now? It doesn't seem to be happening for me any more -

Nope, not fixed for me, and now I have ads bigger than they should be half the time too. I don't know what a Crief Hydro is but I'm definitely not ever going to buy one after this!

Me too
Thought it was my clumsy fingers... But I did wonder

Hi, this is still going on for me, so not fixed yet

Please Tech, can you investigate? It seems to be getting worse. It's just taken me three attempts to load the correct thread. I mostly use the active conversations, so I don't know if there is the same issue on specific boards.

Is there any news on this? It's still happening.

Still happening here too. Has been for an age.

Also the issue with the bar at the bottom of the screen being functionally transparent after it appears to have loaded, IYSWIM. So, say I click on the TIO button or the Active Convos button but it isn;t really there yet so loads the thread the bar is overlaying (which I can't see through the buttons).

Still happening for me.

Sorry - that would be on the app, so it's not just a mobile site issue.

Ooh, I thought I was just mistyping. Happens to me a lot as well.

This happens to me. I'm using a Samsung S4.

It's just happened today on the desktop site!

This happens to me too, using the desktop. It is really quite annoying. It has been happening to me for a few weeks.

Happening to me on android using Firefox, also frequently can't click on thread titles and crashes my browser...

Still getting this - thought it was my fat fingers! ! (Using android / Chrome browser, doesn't seem to be a particular ad)

This is sort of happening to me but it is opening the thread I want, but the thread that is highlighted while the page is loading is one 2 lines down. Hope that makes sense?
Also, when I'm typing, a very annoying 'jumping' effect is happening.
On I phone using safari

Me too - chrome android
