"message poster" has disappeared?

83 replies

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 16/11/2016 12:35

Just noticed in the bar at the top of posts, there is only 'add message' and 'report'.
I checked a TIO that I posted on last night and it still had 'message poster' too.
Refreshed and it disappeared!
Are we not allowed to PM any more?Sad

It's still on the mobile version. Are you in desktop or app?

Yes, for the first time ever, I wanted to send someone a PM the other day and I couldn't work out how to do it. I thought it was me being crap, but as you say, the 'message poster' link appears to have gone Confused

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 16/11/2016 12:39

Desktop.

Weird. I had a message yesterday from someone but it definitely isn't there today, I'm also on the desktop version. My keyboard hasn't been working properly on nere either for days and it keeps freezing and not typing. Works ok on all other sites, it's just MN.

It's gone for me - on the desktop site. I'd post in Site Stuff as you thought. It may just be a glitch.

TupsNSups · 16/11/2016 13:55

Yes nothing here for me to pm on desktop safari.

Boogers · 16/11/2016 13:57

I still have ability to PM you all. Nokia Lumia user here, using work's WIFI.

cozietoesie · 16/11/2016 14:09

Are you on the desktop site or the mobile site, Boogers? (It's still available on the mobile site as far as I can see.)

TupsNSups · 16/11/2016 14:11

I have reported this thread.

BIWI · 16/11/2016 14:11

It's gone for me too - desktop site

KatherineMumsnet · 16/11/2016 15:27

Hi all,

Thanks for the the reports.

Sorry about this - bear with and we'll do our best get to the bottom of it. Can we ask which browser (and device) you're all on? Flowers

TrickyD · 16/11/2016 15:39

It's not there on this Ipad.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 16/11/2016 16:08

Thanks Katherine, glad to hear it's not deliberate!

I'm on Chrome Notebook.

AuntieStella · 16/11/2016 17:56

Absent for me too: iPad, safari, desktop site

OlennasWimple · 16/11/2016 17:56

I'm using Chrome from the desktop platform - no "message poster" here either

OohhThatsMe · 16/11/2016 17:58

I'm on Chrome on my desktop, too - no message poster button, though it was there earlier, as I sent a message!

Yamadori · 16/11/2016 17:59

Chrome notebook.

AliceMumsnet · 16/11/2016 18:32

Hi all,
