PLEASE stop refreshing the page!

Oh dear God, can the site please stop doing a complete refresh every time I hit the back button???

Everything is in a different order every time I go back and I have to scroll to the top and start again.

MNHQ - any chance that this is going to be fixed?

It's awful. I also get the page refreshing while I'm reading a thread or writing a reply. It's so annoying to have nearly finished writing and suddenly whoosh, it's all gone.

Me too! Then the page goes white and posts disappear! I lose what im reading if it’s a big thread!
update to make site better has caused even more problems.

Maybe this unusable new site is just a way to clear out all the old posters who were clogging up the place.

Hi all - sorry for delay in responding. This is on the list and will be sorted v soon (in next week or so). Really sorry for the pain this is causing.

Great news !! thanks SueMumsnet

Costacoffeeplease · 05/05/2022 21:12

It makes the site almost unusable

ExhaustedChameleon · 05/05/2022 21:21

Aaaaaaargh. Thank God for this thread. I couldn't work out why I was having trouble navigating & re-finding threads in active.

My poor cognition (neuro condition) means I get easily confused & I assumed my inflammation was on the increase again. But no, it's just the new Mumsnet Sad

I'm not here much now as it's too stressful.

StageRage · 05/05/2022 22:14

I have lost so many posts to the constant refreshing.

Is it me or is it worse today? Every time I use the back button the whole site just "hangs" before slowly loading. I'm fine on other sites.

NormaSnickers · 07/05/2022 16:15

So pleased to hear this should be sorted soon, it’s incredibly annoying. No idea why anyone would think this would be an improvement!

ShirleyPhallus · 11/05/2022 06:49

I just came on to report this again, it’s so annoying!

Will it be fixed soon @SueMumsnet?

CloseYourEyesAndSee · 12/05/2022 19:25

Any update?
it's still horrible to use. It's refreshing all the time.

OhTinyBear · 12/05/2022 19:40

I hate it too, and have ended up killing time/finding out info from Twitter much, much more than MN since the change, largely because of the stupid annoying constant refreshing problem? Did MN make a corporate decision to try and reduce the number of active site users? Because I really can’t understand why on earth this unwanted, unasked for, and unpopular change was implemented. Please sort it, I miss MN and keep checking in to see if it’s sorted yet, but it isn’t - I just can’t put up with the endless refreshing and am clearly not the only one.

ImaniMumsnet · 12/05/2022 21:34

Hi all, we are sorry this is still happening. We are flagging this again to our Tech team and will get it sorted as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.

OhTinyBear · 12/05/2022 22:46

Thanks @ImaniMumsnet - really hope a solution is in place quickly, I <3 MN but it’s so hard to use since the renovation works. I’ll keep trying, but it’s like the site doesn’t want to be used any more!

Londonnight · 13/05/2022 09:47

Still driving me mad, constantly refreshing every time I use the back button. It's like a whole new page of threads have appeared each time.

Afternoonteaandicecream · 15/05/2022 20:11

This is still driving me crazy, hope mumsnet sort it soon as makes the site so much less enjoyable 🙁
