Oh, my bell doesn’t do a thing!

BlueBelle Thu 27-Jan-22 06:33:19

FannyCornforth Thu 27-Jan-22 04:14:35

BlueBelle if it’s any consolation, my bell doesn’t ring when I have a pm like everyone else’s does

BlueBelle Thu 27-Jan-22 04:06:15

Hi all, the 'Active|Trending|New' links shouldn't have been displaying on Gransnet. We've removed them now.
Ta for bearing with us.

That’s actually quite funny smile
There we all were, thinking that we’d got a fancy new feature…

I get that thing where the page goes blank too very regularly.
At least a couple of times a day. And then sometimes it comes up with the Gateway Error Page.

Oh yes, I got a blank page today, the first time it's happened in fact; I thought it was going to be one of those pop-ups, even larger covering the whole page but it was blank.
And the Gateway Error thingy.

Callistemon21 Wed 26-Jan-22 17:42:59

I like the new italics though.

I only get them on my phone and none of them work.

FannyCornforth Wed 26-Jan-22 10:34:40

Thank you Beechnut blush
Seems like I’ve made a fool of myself again…

Here is The Gilded Age Fanny about 12 posts down on TV page.

I was surprised by these 3 new links this morning. What is the point? What is the difference between Active and Trending? And any new threads will appear at the top of the Active list anyway. Or " Last hour".

Instead of fiddling about devising useless features like these, why don't they get the techies to program something we actually want? (OP subsequent posts in green, edit function, the option to hide a whole group of conversations in one fell swoop e.g. Games)

FannyCornforth Wed 26-Jan-22 09:56:23

Now this is really annoying

I cannot see the thread on The Gilded Age at all

Not in Active, and not when I look under the Arts & TV subforum.

This isn’t the first time that this has happened; there was a thread about Harry & Meghan that I could not see until a poster gave me a link.

What’s going on there?
It must be happening to others as well - it is extremely hard to know what you cannot see! confused

And now after clicking on New.

Beechnut Wed 26-Jan-22 09:10:42

Just now

Marydoll Wed 26-Jan-22 09:02:58

Mine working as normal, but no new.

Grannynannywanny Wed 26-Jan-22 09:00:09

I’m the same as you Grandmabatty. For the past 2 days when I open the site in the usual way the home page is covered by an advert. Yesterday it was Cancer Research UK and today it’s a Mumsnet ad. I can’t close the ads and the small part of the trending list that’s visible at the bottom of the screen disappears up behind the advert when I try to scroll. The ad that’s blocking my view is mostly blank apart from the heading. I’m on mobile site. Anyone else getting this?

Lexisgranny Wed 26-Jan-22 08:56:37

I’m using my iPad and nothing has changed. The Trending list is top right, and I can click on it as usual. Active is on the left, the first in a line which continues I’m on, watching, unanswered, etc. Nothing new at all, and working as usual.

kittylester Wed 26-Jan-22 08:35:18

The top of the page on my android. None of them work though.
