I've managed to get on but the layout has changed and now it's covered in bloody annoying adverts.

Bearsan · 20/04/2022 17:45

Mine keeps signing me out. Then goes back to old usernames. Bit of a mess.

Ihatethenewlook · 20/04/2022 17:46

It was a shit show just trying to click onto this thread. 3 times it took me to the topic instead of the thread

Ha @Ihatethenewlook proves the point then 😃
@Bearsan it keeps saying my password is incorrect but I’ve had the same one since MN was last hacked
posting a message isn’t working , keep trying to sign in and out but not letting me
now I’m going to show up as a newbie as my history has gone and had to make a new email that doesn’t match with my other accounts on my tablet
fucking annoying , I may have to go over to the dark side

The IT team need a stern look and prob Original Tech in USA has his head in his hands.

Hopefully we shall have answers tomorrow, and old accounts can be resurrected etc. Hang on in there, kitty, motivational poster style

Babdoc · 20/04/2022 18:13

Agree. I seem to have to log in with password every damn time I enter the new site. I used to post multiple times a day, but I can’t be bothered with this nonsense.
And I’m autistic, so those bloody adverts jiggling about on the page are a horrible sensory overload and distraction.
The new site is crap.

Topseyt123 · 20/04/2022 18:16

I can't sign on using my old username either. I now have no posting history despite having been on here for years.

Trending isn't working and looks like groundhog day. It hasn't changed all day.

artisanbread · 20/04/2022 18:18

Can't access the site at all from my Android phone.

I just keep getting an error message: 400 Bad Request

Ihatethenewlook · 20/04/2022 18:24

I’ve also lost my old account. I’m going to have a gander at netmums later and see if that’s improved after they performed the same shit show a year or 2 ago and lost loads of their users. People will be switching back now. It’s weird how they’ve removed all of the features that made this site easy to use and made it so much basic and harder. I know people don’t like change in general and there will always be complaints until they get used to the new thing, I don’t think there’s any getting used to this though. It’s a complete ballache

Did you check the 'keep me logged in' box?

Inclinedtochatter · 20/04/2022 19:48

All my bookmarks have disappeared arrgghh!

bonkersbirdie · 20/04/2022 19:52

@Inclinedtochatter

All my bookmarks have disappeared arrgghh!
Mine too and when I bookmarked it again they are not sticking around. I'm using the app.
bonkersbirdie · 20/04/2022 19:53

And it only posted half of my sentence. I'm using the app not the website but it's very frustrating.

mistermagpie · 20/04/2022 19:57

I'm still signed in but all the threads in active are ancient. Also my hidden topics (all to do with pregnancy and conception stuff and hidden for good reason) have all become unbidden, so I'm seeing lots of posts I don't want to.

Show quote history

It won’t let me tick that. It logs me in before I can. Then kicks me out again. Aaggghhh. 🙄

RishiRich · 20/04/2022 20:08

It's working fine for me. I'm using Chrome on an Android phone.

TangoWhiskyAlphaTango · 20/04/2022 20:11

Where the hell has the Higher Education board gone???! A group of us have 1000s of messages on there now its gone?? 😡

JorisBonson · 20/04/2022 20:17

This is crap. Getting logged out every the I navigate away and the video ads are a nightmare. Might flounce off elsewhere for a while.

GinIronic · 20/04/2022 23:35

Awful adverts everywhere - I have a premium account - what am I paying for?

FlibbertyGiblets · 20/04/2022 23:54

Cannot see the following in the topics list:
FWR sex and gender
AIBU
Body and Soul Relationships

I can land on them if I google and go that way but really we ought not be navigating away to navigate back? And when I land I often get the 500 error message, all a bit hopeless tbh.

Sorry to put my grumble in so late at night! Tomorrow will be a better day for everyone #PollyAnna

Manekinek0 · 20/04/2022 23:58

Is anyone else having issues with the trending section? The list of 5 threads that comes up in the box. Mine isnt updating and is all old threads.

I will give it a few days but if no change I think I will just delete. I spend too much time on here anyway.
