Why no paragraphs?

76 replies

CorsicaDreaming · 12/05/2022 20:57

It is making it really frustrating to post......
And really hard to read and follow other peoples posts...............Please bring back paragraphs!
Please add "Bring them Back!" If you agree... it may just be an Apple iOS thing on phone app?

It is also cutting off the last part of some posts. Really annoying.

Minimalme · 13/05/2022 16:22

Or should that be really ano

FabulousKilljoys · 13/05/2022 16:23

@Minimalme indeed 😂

I'm usually very patient but this lack of paragraphs is really getting to me. Come on Mn HQ please, please sort it. Life is difficult enough without having to suffer no paragraphs (my English teacher will be turning in her grave).

MrsMigginsCat · 14/05/2022 08:20

This has really been annoying me over the last few days. I'm finding I'm scrolling by long walls of text because they are so difficult to read. Bring back paragraphs!

LisaSimpson77 · 14/05/2022 08:42

Paragraphs are disappearing and it's cutting the end off every post too.

I'm putting random bollocks on the end of every post to make sure that the main message stays intact.

please sort this out, Mumsnet it's getting annoying now!

Please don't cut my words off in the middle it hurts me feelings xxxxxx

Doh! The < P > works for me but only when I remember to do it 🤦‍♀️

one last try to check!

MrsTerryPratchett · 14/05/2022 14:16

This is actually really starting to piss me off.

This should have been found easily in testing.

ResisterRex · 14/05/2022 15:07

So doing a

Should add a para?

The problems with paragraphs and quoting posts is getting really irritating. I suppose at least with no paragraphs, you at least have all the text??!

User3568975431146 · 14/05/2022 15:26

I'm on iOS snd I have never not had

Paragraphs
On

The

App.

How strange!

Oblomov22 · 14/05/2022 15:31

I'm really hacked off with this now too. It's been ages since the update. Why is it taking so long. This should have bern spotted and addressed in testing stage. Mn has had ages since this was first pointed out, how many days ago?

bloodyunicorns · 14/05/2022 15:34

Bring them back!

And stop cutting off posts!

Hi everyone,

We're so sorry that this issue is taking a while to resolve. We're releasing an update to the app - hopefully today - and are just awaiting approval from Apple. Please bear with us a short while longer.

MrsTerryPratchett · 16/05/2022 15:01

Thanks Dawn. It is a pain in the proverbial so hopefully resolved soon.

I hope you've given the developers crap for it.

Hi @CorsicaDreaming (and everyone else!)

Just to let you all know, the latest version of the iOS app has been approved by the App Store and is available to download.

This latest version 44.13 has the fix to the quoted posts cutting off and the paragraph bunching issues that many of you have been experiencing.

All you need to do is go to the App Store and hit the Update button. Please let us know how you get on - and thanks again for bearing with us.

ResisterRex · 17/05/2022 10:34

Testing

For

The

Update!

ResisterRex · 17/05/2022 10:34

Looks like the update has worked.

I think?

Oblomov22 · 17/05/2022 10:55

Can we do paragraphs now. Testing testing 123.

Oh fabulous.

Trying out the quote function too.

New paragraph?

The proof of the pudding...

...Is in the eating.
Now I shall just waffle on to see if my sentences get chopped off. Well is this still here, I wonder? Hmm. Still going? Not been chopped off in mid sentence yet?

RichardOsmansXraySpecs · 17/05/2022 11:11

Well that seems to be all in order.

Thanks @mnhq

britneyisfree · 19/05/2022 10:58

Everything is still coming up in one big chunk on the app for me. iOS

KimMumsnet · 19/05/2022 11:02

@britneyisfree can we just check you've installed the latest update of the app?

britneyisfree · 19/05/2022 11:43

@KimMumsnet oops! Sorry it's working now. What a relief
