Hello
When browsing the forums and I see a thread title that I want to read, I click on it and nothing happens except the little bookmark icon goes red. What am I doing wrong? I’ve been using internet and forums since 1999, so I’m a bit embarrassed at not being able to do such a simple task!
I’m on an IPad with up to date iOS. No issues anywhere else. Tia!

Hi there
Unfortunately there is a known problem with iPads and the forum.
If you turn your iPad from landscape to portrait, you should be able to navigate to a thread.
It's not ideal, but hopefully some changes that we are currently working on will resolve the issue.Official MSE Forum Team member.Please report all problem posts to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Thank you, @MSE_James. I do use the iPad in portrait so it’s not that. I can see the thread title and whether anyone has replied or not. If they have, I can click on their name and then look at all their replies. That’s how I found this. Looks like I’ll have to wait for a fix! Until then I’ll just scroll through replies like a caveman 😊0

Sorry - I got that the wrong way round - I meant if you use the iPad in landscape mode it will work as expected.
There is a glitch when viewing the forum at the exact screen width of an iPad in portrait orientation.Official MSE Forum Team member.Please report all problem posts to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Yes, you’re right. In landscape It works! Thank you @MSE_James 😀0
