Problem with read threads not changing colour...

Ok MN, so now you've fixed the problem with bookmarking Grin. For some time now, when I've read a thread, it temporarily changes colour, to show I've read it, then will change back to 'unread colour' at some point and then I'm reading a thread again that I'm not interested in because the title wasn't memorable enough for me to remember. First world problem, I know.... I'm using Chrome on laptop.

Mine are random seemingly.

@LornaMumsnet
Any news?

GreyhoundzRool · 03/08/2018 06:10

I am using the desk top on an iPad. Safari version 11.4.1.

The problem is not just with the app

fuzzyfozzy · 03/08/2018 09:17

I'm unclear why @mnhq are able to reply to other threads but not this one.

leanne9312 · 03/08/2018 12:45

@fuzzyfozzy I agree come on mumsnet!!!!!!!

fuzzyfozzy · 03/08/2018 12:58

Maybe if we keep posting it'll appear on active...

NotPennysBoat · 03/08/2018 15:36

I agree, I understand that some problems are harder to fix than others, but the lack of updates is really piss poor considering how long it's been going on!

AnyaMumsnet · 03/08/2018 16:49

Hi there everyone,

We're not ignoring you - but as far as we know tech still haven't managed to replicate the problem, which obviously makes it pretty hard to fix. We've flagged it again with them though so we'll update you when we have more information.

fuzzyfozzy · 03/08/2018 18:33

Thanks anya

leanne9312 · 03/08/2018 20:16

Thankyou

mummabubs · 03/08/2018 23:14

Now it's doing it randomly with threads (both that I've started or that I'm on), some but not others. I'm an iPhone app user. I really don't get it as this problem seemed to disappear for me for several months and now it's back again! 🙈🙁

QueenOfIce · 07/08/2018 13:03

I too am having issues with threads I've read immediately turning white when there's no new replies.

leanne9312 · 07/08/2018 19:09

Pleaseeeeeee Fix this soon !

TimMumsnet · 08/08/2018 13:58

Talk iOS app users, we have a fix for read threads! 🤩

We've rebuilt the way the app show there are new posts on a thread, and so far it's looking good. Try out the update on the App Store, and let us know how it goes.

GreyhoundzRool · 09/08/2018 10:38

That’s great @TimMumsnet - what about the desktop ? That doesn’t even get mentioned in any replies to this thread 🤔

mummabubs · 09/08/2018 15:40

@TimMumsnet, when I go to the App Store it says I've got the most up to date version (that was available 3 days ago) when I know I haven't as I haven't updated... and it's still doing the threads not showing up as read?!

leanne9312 · 09/08/2018 15:44

Fixed thankyou !!! 🙂😕🙂

mummabubs · 09/08/2018 15:48

I've deleted and redownloaded the app and think it's fixed, but now I have annoying adverts on threads 😬🙈😬🙈

TimMumsnet · 10/08/2018 07:46

@GreyhoundzRool there are two separate issues ongoing, the desktop issue is still being looked into. Thanks for your patience!

TimMumsnet · 10/08/2018 07:49

@mummabubs that's strange! Have you checked the version number in the menu? It should say 3.11.4

GreyhoundzRool · 10/08/2018 08:54

Thanks @TimMumsnet - was feeling invisible 😂

fuzzyfozzy · 10/08/2018 10:24

It wasn't in my to be updated list, I searched for it and it said there was an update.
Seems fixed!!!!

fuzzyfozzy · 11/08/2018 13:48

I can't find an update for my iPad though

Wallywobbles · 12/08/2018 23:24

Worse than ever for me.

Polestar50 · 13/09/2018 00:07

Just happened again for me Sad
