... please can you stop it re-appearing on every single page refresh?

JTK392 · 04/03/2022 17:22

I still have it. Ugly old thing. Go awaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy

IsThisNameTaken · 04/03/2022 17:22

Why have an 'x' to make me think I can get rid of it just for it to re-appear on the next page? Very annoying.

MaizeAmaze · 04/03/2022 17:23

It's still here

JeremiahObadiahJackanoryJonez · 04/03/2022 17:23

Mine is intermittent. It keeps killing me into thinking it’s gone then sneaking back again!

Safari on mobile.

SaskiaRembrandt · 04/03/2022 17:25

I came here to start a thread about this.

My browser is up to date, so please make it stop!

zigzag56445 · 04/03/2022 17:25

Yup. Driving me mad. Still there. Every time

SaskiaRembrandt · 04/03/2022 17:25

@NinjaQueen

I have never seen it, I presume it only shows on browsers that are older?
I'm using the latest version of Chrome.
SoupDragon · 04/03/2022 17:26

It's not there for me any more. Clearly it's scared of dragons.

Driving me up the bloody wall!!

Akire · 04/03/2022 17:27

I’m on ad free so no idea. Hope this isn’t the strange site we asked test with horrible sizing and fonts!

KatyMumsnet · 04/03/2022 17:50

Hi all,

Apologies for this mishap - there was an issue with targeting, as some of you pointed out.

We've updated it now so you'll now only see the banner 1 time unless you've changed device/browser, cleared your cookies or use a private browser.

We will give an update next week about the switch over to the new site.

Thanks,

Katy

SoupDragon · 04/03/2022 18:25

It's back every time I go to Active conversations!

OP posts:
ProfYaffle · 04/03/2022 18:27

Yep - back for me too.

OliveRudge · 04/03/2022 18:31

I hadn’t noticed it until you vipers started a thread .

I clearly wander about in my own world Grin

Will I need to click all those bloody 160 odd cookie consents again??

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 04/03/2022 18:34

Every time I click on "Active" the banner comes back.

KatyMumsnet · 04/03/2022 18:37

Hi,

We had issues setting up the targeting so we've changed it to only show on active now.

We know it's annoying but it's really important that people see it before we do the switch over to the new site. It'll only be for a few days!

Thanks,

Katy

sadpapercourtesan · 04/03/2022 18:37

It's definitely making me twitch

I was avoiding starting a whinge thread about it, so thanks for providing me with one to post on Grin

FFS @KatyMumsnet!

How many times do you think we need to see it before we get the message? Do you think we're absolutely stupid?

Please stop it. Take it away.

Only for a few days?! Do you have any idea how many times I access Active Convos in one day, never mind in a few days?! Grin

MaizeAmaze · 04/03/2022 18:41

Can you not make is go once we dismiss it?
Or make it much smaller and less in your face once it's been dismissed?

Blossomtoes · 04/03/2022 18:45

Never seen it.

It is beyond annoying!

I've seen it. I've dismissed it, I allow cookies.

Please make it go away once it's been dismissed.

Just once per day isn't it? Like me. I'm barely here...

Who are you?

SoupDragon · 04/03/2022 18:51

Mostly a lurker.

OP posts:
SoupDragon · 04/03/2022 18:52

The other annoying thing is that it doesn't stay put. The fucker follows you as you scroll down the list of active conversations. Just in case you hadn't spotted it.
