META: Mobile Users Please Clear Your Cache (sticky)
If you've been having trouble opening the sandwich menu or logging in, it's because of a back-end update and your phone storing an old version. The fix:
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:33 PM ^
Okay, but only because you asked nicely.
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:06 PM ^
FYI, clearing cookies on mobile browsers seems needed periodically. Otherwise the site is slow to load. I have to do it multiple times per week . Same issue on Chrome and Firefox.
November 22nd, 2023 at 3:05 PM ^
Exactly, I try to clean mine every day or every other day. Also restarting your phone daily is a good idea.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:36 PM ^
Not the sandwich menu, but I am still not getting the menu at the top to follow as I scroll down in a thread. So I have to scroll all the way back up. That little “Back to Home” that was on the right side is not there now. I am using Safari and have cleared the cache.
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:08 PM ^
Please fix this. My finger is getting tired.
November 22nd, 2023 at 5:01 PM ^
Thirded. I posted this in the bug thread as well. That simple thing made the board very easy to navigate on a laptop. It would be great if it came back.
And I don't know what a sandwich menu is, but if there is one, I'd like a Reuben.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:38 PM ^
I was wondering why it wasn’t working. Now all good.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:41 PM ^
Huzzah! Everything old is new again!
Thanks, Seth!
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:46 PM ^
MGoBlog has a sandwich menu? Cool.
I'll take a pastrami with chopped liver, cole slaw, and Russian dressing on rye, with a dill pickle.
I'll take extra napkins, too—I don't want to get my cache sticky.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:51 PM ^
Sure, like you even have a stomach….
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:07 PM ^
Our Halloween skeletons are refusing to come down off the house until after the football season is over. Fortunately we don't have to deliver sandwiches to them.
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:46 PM ^
how can you do that to your own children?! make them come down, don.
and then let them go to the nearest sparty neighbor and put them all outside of windows. when the sun comes up, oh my, sparty be shakin'.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:53 PM ^
Frames would like15-24 PB&Js delivered to the nearest tunnel.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:58 PM ^
Oh, just because you're old bones, you think you get to order off-menu?
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:47 PM ^
I had subs it was crazy. Sandwiches are so 1990’s.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:52 PM ^
Thanks Seth. Now I can focus on the 4523 other things I need to do before Saturday.
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:52 PM ^
Great. Now I can up vote
November 22nd, 2023 at 12:57 PM ^
Word of warning, be careful how you do this. I did it and wasn't paying attention to what I was clearing and lost my 500+ streak on Wordle...
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:30 PM ^
That's what I was afraid of. Not clearing mine - I have priorities!
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:50 PM ^
If you want to delete for just this site, try this:
From Chrome on Android:
At the top right, click More (three dot menu) and then Settings.
Click “Site Settings” (under advanced)
Click “All sites”
Search for “mgoblog” and delete
YMMV

For iPhones using safari, this worked for me to clear just one site:
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:00 PM ^
did not work for me on safari
edit, nevermind, just took a couple of force closes
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:11 PM ^
But will I lose my points if I clear my cache?
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:12 PM ^
Worked
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:13 PM ^
Does Chrome work better than Safari on an Iphone? Thinking about switching.
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:14 PM ^
Curious if others are experiencing similar issue. When I give a +1 it bumps me to the top of the page 🤷♂️. Clearing cache now. Thanks for the post
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:26 PM ^
Working now on Safari but Chrome (mobile) still crashing every time I click on a post.
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:20 PM ^
I still can't upvote on my laptop. Is there anything I can do to fix that on my end?
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:11 PM ^
same thing.
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:24 PM ^
Chrome 119.0.6045.163
Android 14
Build number UD1A.231105.004
Pixel 8 Pro
Deleting all cookies and site data did reset logins and preferences but did not fix/enable drop down menus.
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:36 PM ^
Not an Edge user but appreciate that it links you to Chrome 😂
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:49 PM ^
fyi it's typically called the hamburger menu
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:11 PM ^
Those are against NCAA rules.
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:17 PM ^
I opened a new Safari based version of MGoBlog (never used it before) and I can now upvote. I can’t use the hamburger, reply to comments, or upvote when using Duck Duck Go
Edit: In Duck Duck Go on an iPad, I opened a new tab, hit the gear, and selected Automatically Clear Data - setting it to yes and clearing all my tabs and data. Re-opened MGoBlog and now have full functionality. For an iPhone, the three dots at the lower right corner will get you to the same place.
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:20 PM ^
Only when they have cheese on them
November 22nd, 2023 at 3:44 PM ^
Ha this is great!
November 22nd, 2023 at 5:05 PM ^
Don't say "amburger-hay".....the NCAA is listening.
Always listening.
November 22nd, 2023 at 1:52 PM ^
I think you can clear the cache for just MGOBlog by following these instructions. At least for Android, there are slightly different instructions for Windows, other browsers and Apple devices.
Feel free to delete this if this method won't achieve the desired results.
Is there a way to verify it updated?
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:06 PM ^
Awesome! I’ve been having issues and thought it was from my iPhone update/
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:17 PM ^
This is so true. I was having a hard time with my Android phone to use this site. Clearing everything got me back with no issues on the site. Thanks Seth
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:19 PM ^
This works fine after clearing my cache, but i can’t upvote/downvote. Clicking on an arrow just brings me back to the top of the post
November 22nd, 2023 at 9:48 PM ^
I had the same problem. Just cleared my cache and my cookies (MacBook Pro) and that did the trick. Clearing just the cache didn't work.
November 22nd, 2023 at 2:43 PM ^
RIP Wordle stats.
November 22nd, 2023 at 3:21 PM ^
Inflation has done enough to clear my cash!
November 22nd, 2023 at 3:23 PM ^
Absolutely not.
November 22nd, 2023 at 3:30 PM ^
Why is it that only mgoblog has these issues on mobile? Maybe time to switch how you do the website? It is literally the only site I ever have problems with.
November 22nd, 2023 at 5:00 PM ^
This was from a major update from Drupal 8 to Drupal 10. The site is running 800% faster now and we closed a security hole as well.
November 22nd, 2023 at 11:08 PM ^
Thanks for getting this done in time for The Game. I imagine it would have melted down several times on Saturday, otherwise.
November 23rd, 2023 at 1:16 AM ^
Will this update keep the Day brothers from hacking us?
November 23rd, 2023 at 7:08 AM ^
For real. Sucks so bad.
