This morning I thought I d have a clean up as my news feed was just full of GAMES popped down the bottom to change to desktop to start the long involved way of cleaning up my news feed only to find the mobile/ desktop box isn’t there
Anyone else lost it or know where it’s moved to ? or is it just me

Thanks Lara!

Hurrah, that’s worked! Thank you.

Marydoll Thu 10-Sep-20 16:43:26

Success, cheers!

Marydoll Thu 10-Sep-20 16:41:52

Hello, and thank you all for bringing this to our attention. This is a temporary glitch and our tech team are working to rectify it. It will be sorted by next week. In the meantime though there is a workaround. If you click on these links it should take you to your preferred views. Sorry, we know it's a little clunky but does the job for now until we get it all fixed. Thank you smile

I will report myself and ask for an update.

GNHQ, may we please have an update? Thanks in advance.

It’s annoying that HQ don’t let us know what is happening and when it will be fixed
There is no other way to clear the newsfeed on the mobile site is there ? If anyone knows please tell me what to do before my whole newsfeed page is filled up with games

Mine has gone walkabout also

SueDonim Thu 10-Sep-20 15:19:22

Ah, I started a thread yesterday about the missing mobile site and someone mentioned there was already a thread about it.

I take it there’s no news?

Marydoll Thu 10-Sep-20 14:31:11

It's the desktop layout I prefer. Much easier for my rheumatoid hands.

JackyB Thu 10-Sep-20 14:13:22

There are things you can do on the mobile site that you can't do on the desktop. And, I think, vice versa.

Marydoll Thu 10-Sep-20 14:07:33

I always have it on desktop view, I do not like the mobile view at all. ?

JackyB Thu 10-Sep-20 11:07:06

I see that Lily wrote on the 6th that they were looking into it. Don't want to hassle but surely they've had time by now. If it's not broke, why fix it? Why not fix the things that really are broke?

As I say, I'm sure everyone's doing their best and these are only little niggles in the grand scheme of things, but if the IT department is stressed, why did they have to touch the mobile/Desktop function at all?

Mines stayed on mobile but the box is still disappeared Marydoll

Marydoll Wed 09-Sep-20 22:24:18

My tablet keeps switching between mobile and desktop mode, as I'm reading it tonight. It's driving me crazy and is now stuck on moble site!?

BlueBelle Wed 09-Sep-20 22:19:58

Any news lilyGransnet

BlueBelle Mon 07-Sep-20 18:35:21

I hope this will be restored soon I need to get rid of a whole load of games in my newsfeed as they are building up big time and incredibly annoying and still no box on the bottom to use
Why can’t you remove them without going into the desktop mode lilygransnet

Hi folks

Thanks so much for raising this - we're just talking to our tech team and will be back soon with more information. flowers

FarNorth Sun 06-Sep-20 10:29:48

Search function only works in Desktop mode for me, on my phone confused
It would be nice to have it back.

Maybe they're busy sorting things so that we can see all the OP's posts highlighted, on a thread??

FarNorth Sun 06-Sep-20 10:25:03

shock You're right!

A while ago, I noticed I'd lost the bit at the top where there's the option to see the first post, on any page of a thread.
It's back now, tho.

MiniMoon Sun 06-Sep-20 10:18:31

I use the mobile site. It's usually at the bottom, but no, it isn't there.

Where has it gone?

DanniRae Sun 06-Sep-20 09:41:28

Mine's gone too!

Bathsheba Sun 06-Sep-20 09:38:04

Mine's still there. Am I the only one?

Wait - no it's not. I refreshed and now it's gone!

Chewbacca Sun 06-Sep-20 09:32:30

I never thought to look until seeing this thread but me too! There it was, gone!

Pittcity Sun 06-Sep-20 08:44:05

I emailed GNHQ about it last week.
I also had another problem. If I bookmark on a 2nd or subsequent page I can't go back to previous pages. This seemed to have been rectified after HQ acknowledged my email, but this morning it's back.
