Constantly being sent back to the beginning of the active list

[saraclara]

Normally, when I click on a thread on the active list, I can read it dvd then use the back button to take me to where it was on the active list so I can continue working my way down.

But now when I click back, I'm taken right to the top of the list and have to scroll all the way down to find where I last left it.
It might seem trivial, but it's very annoying.

It sounds as though it should be an easy fix?

Me too! It's been happening for a few days and is really annoying!

Me too x for several days x driving me mad x

Me too. I have started opening the link in a new tab as I am on a laptop. That back button and going back to where you originally were in the active conversations list was brilliant.

MN can you fix that?

It’s been like this for ages for me too. It’s rather annoying.

Mine is fine on my iPhone but does the same on my laptop in pat few days. It’s so annoying

This has already been raised with MNHQ but no resolution so far

Same. Very annoying. Mine’s been doing it for weeks.

And me. Glad I saw this i was thinking of posting. It's putting me off bothering at times. And the bookmarks don't seem to work.
I use it on my phone mainly so sometimes leave the thread open on a tab and then have to turn off my phone. When I go back to it now it tends to default to the top of the thread or just at a random spot rather than where I left it, which it always used to do. I never needed to bother with bookmarks as it was always in the right place. Even when I had 20 different threads on individual tabs open.

There's another thread about this that @MNHQ commented on a few days ago to say they are looking in to it. Sadly no updates from them yet.
It's annoying and frustrating

Please fix this, it’s very annoying!

Me too, for the past couple of days.

I've got this too, and when you hide threads they just come straight back

Thanks, @saraclara for raising this - I've been suffering for several days and haven't got round to complaining for myself.

Me too. V v tedious. Come on Mumsnet! Sort it out!

Yes, I hate this. It's so annoying.

Yes, me too. For such a (seemingly) small thing it’s intensely irritating.

Its annoying isn't it, it's even more annoying when you get to the bottom of the active list and click 'load more' then click the back button.
It takes you right back to the top of the original list and you have to scroll to the bottom and 'load more' again . It feels like it takes ages .

I am on Samsung android using chrome.
Is it any different for those on the app or premium?

Me too

Have I missed it? I couldn't see it anywhere. Or are you thinking of the OP, about a slightly different problem?

ETA sorry, just found the thread that you're talking about. If missed it.

I thought it was just me! Agree that it is very annoying.

Same for me. Samsung phone, using chrome. Not on the app.

Yes, and it's really annoying. Wonder what caused the change?

Me too,on both my phone (Samsung, Chrome rather than app) and Chromebook, although both on Android/Chrome I guess.

And me. So minor but so intensely irritating
