The last couple of days when I look at Active, or any other section (Gardening, Site Stuff etc) every time I come out of a thread it takes me back to the top, so I then have to scroll past all the threads I've read to get back to where I was. It's very annoying, could you fix it please? Grin I'm on an Android phone, using the desktop site.

Me too, iPhone 11 on safari, keeps randomly reloading whilst reading a thread too and that also takes me back to the top of the page 😡 It's so annoying I've hardly been on here in days.

@HebeMumsnet

Any chance of an update on this? It's been happening for days now and makes using the site a really unpleasant experience (although on the plus side I have finished cleaning the house ready for weekend guests!)

HEC2746 · 11/09/2025 14:38

Still happening here, on Safari on my phone. It’s getting really annoying now.

ginasevern · 11/09/2025 16:03

Glad it's not just me! I'm using a desktop by the way. It is a bit annoying.

Bsmirched · 11/09/2025 16:08

Still happening for me, too. Android Chrome. Any update @HebeMumsnet ?

Manchestermummax3 · 11/09/2025 16:18

Yep! Same here. Beyond frustrating!

Apprenante · 11/09/2025 16:39

Still happening

Pippadeck · 11/09/2025 17:24

@HebeMumsnet any updates ?

It is a really irritating issue!

Gladysknightjustwalkinmyshoes · 11/09/2025 17:34

Android, Google

RockyRogue1001 · 11/09/2025 17:35

Agree with all of you.
And it is bloody annoying
Also on an android

RozGruber · 11/09/2025 23:26

Me too! Sometimes I open them in a new tab but honestly it's just too annoying. I should be spending less time on MN anyway.

squashyhat · 12/09/2025 12:00

MNHQ any progress? This is still happening.

DirtyBird · 12/09/2025 12:18

This is happening to me as well

Pippadeck · 12/09/2025 16:39

Still not sorted, how long does it take?

HEC2746 · 12/09/2025 19:10

Tell you what frustrates me about Mumsnet nowadays. They never reply. It’s been days of people reporting this. It’s not like the ad issue where they’ve made a decision and are going to stick to it no matter whether people dislike it - this is a simple glitch that has happened before and can be fixed. Mumsnet used to appear to monitor Site Stuff and respond but it’s been days and… nada. Kinda shows what they think of their users nowadays.

Ksibeij · 12/09/2025 19:34

Yes same. It's very annoying. Android phone, mobile site.

It really shows how little they care about the users of the site. It no longer seems to matter if the site is user friendly

404PageNotFound · 12/09/2025 21:18

Same here when I use my phone. On my laptop it's fine because I open threads in a new tab.

BookShark · 13/09/2025 07:41

Between the video ads and this, the site is rapidly becoming unusable. And every time these issues are raised, we get fobbed off with "we're looking into it" and then nothing changes. I can't be the only one who's thinking about just not bothering in future and going elsewhere.

Agreed it really is a pita
Come on MNHQ get it sorted!!

MagpiePi · 13/09/2025 08:08

I was thinking of reporting this too. Along with the slow time to load the site, slow time to load threads, (I assume because of the adverts) flicking back up to the top of the thread when adverts are loading, the advert that slides down and covers the top third of the screen. Bloody annoying adverts. I get that you’ve decided to go full on with advertising but can’t you make them less disruptive?

iphone on chrome and Mac with Firefox.
At least with Firefox you don’t get adverts!

Ksibeij · 13/09/2025 10:10

I'm.a long term user of MN, the discussions are what keeps me here but I've never known another website to have so many continual glitches and issues.
Come on @MNHQ please address this very annoying issue..it's still happening and makes using the site very frustrating

Cancelthecake · 13/09/2025 11:39

It's like reading a book and every time you turn the page you are back to the beginning of the book again.

Pretty poor that this is still going on and no updates from @MNHQ.

Pinkywoo · 13/09/2025 13:13

STILL not working @HebeMumsnet , it's so annoying and stopping people from using the site, any update on when it will be fixed?

You're not.
I've barely been on the site in days as it's so frustrating.
