I think the quoting function is a little bit duff.

It appears that responses to quote posts are either being cut off or not appearing at all.

Couple of snaps to show you:

Hi @StandingOvulation thanks for letting us know. We're so far unable to replicate this. Can we ask you to check you're running the latest version of the app? Also please let us know which device you're using. Hopefully it's a temporary glitch!

Hey @StandingOvulation you're on the latest version so we've ruled that out. It's a pain, but could you please delete then reinstall the app? Let us know if it's still happening once you've done that.

It's doing it throughout the "AIBU that the period of mourning is driving people batshit" thread (am sure there are others, but that's the one I noticed it on). It's the same problem that was around ages ago when the app changed, I think.

I'm also getting this on all threads

Thanks everyone. Could we ask anyone seeing this to let us know whether they're on the iOS or Android app? And if you can tell us which version, that would also be very useful. Thanks. Flowers

I'm getting this too, it's really annoying. On iPhone running ios16, app is up to date.

TroublesomeLuck · 14/09/2022 16:19

I've got an iPhone 13, just updated to ios16 but was the same on 15.6 yesterday. The app is v44.17

catsarebetterthandogs9 · 14/09/2022 22:07

iPhone here too. Was running on 15.6 yesterday and 16 today, doing it on both

I've just realised it happened after updating to ios 16 if that info helps Tech.

Hmm.

After seeing PPs' comments maybe if was happening before ios 16.

Can't be sure

Thanks OP! We're on it and will post when we have an update. Flowers

inappropriateraspberry · 15/09/2022 14:52

I'm getting this as well.

inappropriateraspberry · 15/09/2022 14:53

It was happening before ios16, very annoying!

msssm · 16/09/2022 23:03

Mine started with ios16 update. It's so bloody annoying.

IloveJudgeJudy · 17/09/2022 07:54

Me, too. I'm on iOS 16 iPhone 12 Pro but It was happening previously.

RockaLock · 17/09/2022 09:24

I'm also getting this. On the app, using IOS 16. But pretty sure it's been going on before the iOS update.

There doesn't seem to be any logic to it. Within the same thread, I can get:

A "normal" post, containing a whole quoted post and new comments below it

A post containing only a (whole) quoted post, although the poster has clearly made additional comments below it which I can't see

A post containing only part of a quoted post, and nothing else

A post containing a whole quoted post, and comments below which are cut off part way through.

It doesn't seem to be connected to the length of the quoted post or the new comments made.

It is making following some threads very difficult!

Ihaveabadfeelingaboutthis · 17/09/2022 15:42

It's happening to me too! I've got the up to date version of Mumsnet & iOS 16. I've logged out & in again but it hasn't made any difference. It's making the site fairly unusable to be honest.

TroublesomeLuck · 19/09/2022 23:05

Well, it's still broken

LivMumsnet · 20/09/2022 10:12

Sorry to hear this - we'll update Tech on the number of posters experiencing problems and hope to have a positive update for you soon.

msssm · 22/09/2022 12:55

Still the same. Site is unreadable. So fed up.

As you can see from my screenshot some quotes have responses. Some you can only see a tiny bit of the top of the response.
Others (mostly) it is just a quote with no response at all.

Can't follow any threads. Isn't there any update on this yet?

I think the quoting function is a little bit duff.
