AB is becoming really hard to use on the phone. The links to the questions do not work at all. You click on them and nothing happens. Over the last week it has been particularly bad.

I'm using Chrome. Tried shutting the whole thing down and re-starting but still the same.

AB is the ONLY site I have this issue with.

Seems I'm not the only one. https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/AB-Editors-Blog/Question1676698.html

Any suggestions, please?

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

I have informed our techie gnomes and they shall take a look into the issue.
I use an Android phone and have no problems at all!
Mexican18, what browser do you use?
I'm using Chrome on Android to reply, it all seems ok to me. Back to the PC now, though :- )

The problem is, it is intermittent. I tried to open a post in law last night and NONE of them would open.

It's when you click the red title or someone's name. And it tends to be a problem in the actual category rather than "Latest Posts".
Thank you, Lie-in King.

Barmaid, I'm sorry to hear that you've had usability issues. Thank you for giving us a further description of the issue.
I sometimes can't open questions on my Android phone. the problem seems to be the Accept Cookies/Privacy messages that come up- if I accept I just get asked again and again and in the meantime nothing happens when I click on questions. I sometimes find that logging out, clearing cookies , switching off and then on again is the only way round it - until the Privacy notices come back again, at which point I give up and wait until I can access my laptop
Sorry, I only thought to "have a try" to see if I could replicate the problem, but even a 2nd go just now allows me to open from within a Category & to open profiles etc.

I don't use the phone for AB cos replying is so fiddly, so probably won't see the problem just on the off-chance :-(
I've had this problem for 2 or 3 weeks now
I tried to follow Buencvhico's clear instructions but couldn't see the " brush " symbol that he mentioned.
I can usually get into Latest Posts but not Most Recent. Using Chrome on a Samsung.
At this moment I'm having the same problem as ff. :(
Usability Issues?!!!!! Cut the geek-speak please ED.
