This has just started happening over the last 15 mins or so.

(ipad, desk top, Safari)

Hi @SoupDragon could you close and then restart Safari, please? Let us know if it's still happening after that.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 25/10/2022 09:49

me too!

SoupDragon · 25/10/2022 09:49

That did stop it, thanks.

I'd already tried clearing Mumsnet cookies which didn't help.

It's happening on the Mobile Site as well.

TheWindBeneathMyFlaps · 25/10/2022 09:50

Yes to me too

Poa · 25/10/2022 09:52

Happening for me too, closing and reopening does nothing to help.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 25/10/2022 10:04

Shutting down and re starting hasn't helped.

Augend23 · 25/10/2022 10:07

Me as well, will try closing and restarting...

Augend23 · 25/10/2022 10:08

Nope, closing and restarting hasn't fixed it. (Android, Chrome)

SirChenjins · 25/10/2022 10:09

Me too on my iphone - restarting does nothing

Hi all, we're sorry that a few of you are experiencing these formatting issues. Clearing your cache should solve this problem - could you please let us know if that works?

Thanks in advance.

DawnMumsnet · 25/10/2022 10:22

If you don't know how to clear your cache, you can find instructions on how to do it here: https://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser%27s-Cache#

Augend23 · 25/10/2022 10:23

Clearing the cache has sorted it out for me. Should have tried that as well as closing it and reopening. Thanks Dawn :)

DawnMumsnet · 25/10/2022 10:35

That's good to hear, @Augend23 - it worked for me, too. I'd been having problems on and off this morning...

@SoupDragon can you give it a go too?

Soubriquet · 25/10/2022 10:36

I had that. It went back after 10 mins

I'd already cleared the website data for Mumsnet - that alone didn't fix it. Whether it was that plus shutting Safari completely or just shutting Safari that fixed it I don't know. (Just shutting the MN tab didn't work either - I tried that first).

seems to still be OK now though.

Mine did the first time but then wouldn't go away. Took me ages to track down the teeny tiny "post" button in amongst all the huge text 😂

@SoupDragon glad things seem to be back on track for you now, whatever it was that sorted it Smile

Do let us know if you have any more problems.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 25/10/2022 10:50

Arrgghh! Clearing hasn't worked for me!

kittensinthekitchen · 25/10/2022 10:53

Thanks @DawnMumsnet , clearing cache seems to have worked for me.

What was the cause though? I hadn't changed anything on my phone or browser (Samsung mobile) so it must have been something on your end?

DawnMumsnet · 25/10/2022 10:53

@BewitchedBotheredandBewildered sorry to hear that. Can you please let us know what happens if you use Incognito mode?

DawnMumsnet · 25/10/2022 10:56

@kittensinthekitchen - glad to hear that clearing your cache has helped.

Apparently this was a CloudFlare issue (but please don't ask me what that means) Blush

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 25/10/2022 11:02

I don't know how to do that.

KimberleyClark · 25/10/2022 11:05

Have tried closing safari, powering off my iPad and powering it on again, still happening

Clearing cache worked for me too.
