Why has Mumsnet gone really small on my phone?

[OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny]

I'm sorry, I'm sure there's an obvious straightforward reason but, having just got up, my brain isn't functioning fully yet.

I don't use the app, I have Mumsnet in my favourites on Google Chrome on my phone. I'm sure it was a version for phones etc but now its layout is like on my laptop which makes it impossible to use easily.

I can't find any settings that would change this.

Update .... everything in my favourites has "gone small" (ie. showing laptop/pc layouts of pages rather than phone versions) so I'm guessing it's maybe a phone problem?

Anyone got any idea what's going on?

Thanks

Hi OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny,

That sounds very frustrating - we're not sure what's causing it but am guessing your phone may be the culprit as you say.
Could you try using a different browser and let us know how you get on..

We'll do our best to get to the bottom of this for you.

Scroll to the very bottom of the page and if there is a "view mobile site" link, click it.

Also in Chrome, check "Desktop Site" is unchecked.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine - yep, that's it!

A combination of googling and your comments sorted it.

Whether I accidently clicked the "desktop site box" on Google Chrome or not I don't know but its now resolved. (TBH I hadn't even noticed that box on the dropdown menu before!)

Hi there OP,

Glad to hear this is sorted for you. Do give us a shout if you need help with anything else.
