Getting a little fed up of seeing "Feeling stretched" right across the full page when I'm trying to read posts. Can this be looked at by someone in the know?

I agree it's really annoying. Don't seem able to close it and it obscures some of the posts.

@MNHQ please can you look into this?

Fizzadora · 24/01/2024 11:39

I had this a couple of months ago for about a week or so and told MNHQ then it stopped and didn't reappear. It was just the Sainsbury's ad, no others.
It was worse in landscape. ( I use a tablet with a stand)

I'm getting this too. It's making it really difficult to use the site.

I am using Chrome on a windows PC

I downloaded an ad blocker and that's got rid of it.

Rhythmisadancer · 24/01/2024 11:53

agreed - it's extremely annoying,

I gave up on this thread. I thought the mobile version was bad but at least I can see all of the text on it with a lot of scrolling.

I agree. It’s making things difficult to read. It would be great if something could please be done.

BroccliSpears · 24/01/2024 13:04

Please do something about this. It’s very annoying.

skyeisthelimit · 24/01/2024 13:14

Came to add my voice to this, it is horrendously annoying, the ad is staying there and not moving and covering half the posts!

On Desktop.

Y6yhnsr5 · 24/01/2024 15:01

I was about to start my own bloody thread about this! @MNHQ surely someone should be able to see that this massive ad is blocking the threads or you just don't care?

LilyMumsnet · 24/01/2024 15:58

Hi all,

We can assure you that we have been trying to resolve this as quickly as we can. If you see the advert from this moment on, please can you let us know?

LilyMumsnet · 24/01/2024 16:09

To add - you shouldn't see this advert anymore. We have blocked all variations, but please let us know if something doesn't look right.

Staticgirl · 24/01/2024 16:28

It's still appearing on my work machine...

Changethetoner · 24/01/2024 16:30

Yes it is still here. Using google chrome on laptop. Very annoying as it obscures posts.

OlderandwiserMaybe · 24/01/2024 17:09

Yep I can still see it too. Using Edge as a browser on a laptop. Agree with all others above it annoying.

Whiskeypowers · 24/01/2024 17:25

Still appearing on mine too : iPad safari 🙄

SpongeBoobBigPants · 24/01/2024 17:28

It’s very much still there. iPad/Safari; have cleared cache.

LilyMumsnet · 24/01/2024 17:30

Thanks all.

Sorry about that - we thought we had successfully blocked it. We are in the process of blocking it permanently but we don't have a time frame- it's not an isolated advert (which would make it quite simple). It's coming through in different ways. We'll post an update as soon as we have one.
