@MNHQ when I'm on another site on my PC, I go to my search bar and enter mumsnet.com and hit enter...usually I'll go right to the site but at the moment, it's adding the word 'prod' automatically and then I get taken to a fault page.

The only way I can get to the site is by Googling past chats and hitting that page. Here's how the URL looks
www.prod.mumsnet.com/

Hi @FortunesFave just dropping in to see if you are still having problems accessing the site at all? Please give us a shout if you need any help. Flowers

Yes I am...it's so odd. Never seen anything like it. I get the blank page with

This site can’t be reachedCheck if there is a typo in www.prod.mumsnet.com.
If spelling is correct, try running Windows Network Diagnostics.
DNSPROBEFINISHED_NXDOMAIN

Which is odd. And what on earth is 'prod' ?? Feels a bit hacky.

To add, I'm not having any trouble with any other sites. I did Google the issue but nothing came up.

Hi @FortunesFave thanks for the extra information. Can we ask you to clear the cache and let us know if this is still happening? Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this for you. Flowers

I have this problem too, I can access through a saved link to active. If I click the round circle with the M at the top it also brings up the bizarre "prod.mumsnet" with a blank screen.

It's gone for me now! @MNHQ seems to be fixed now thanks.
