tilt the front of the saddle up a little bit. that might help.

Don't know if this will help but here it is.

I had the same issue when I tried a seatpost that looked great but had more setback than what I needed. Now that I switched back to a seatpost with less setback I do not have the issue.

Yes, tilt the saddle so it seems flat. If you can't fine tune the tilt due to little ridges in the adjuster thingy on the post you can always use a small piece of aluminum can cut to fit on top of the ridges....

I slid forward on while I was riding on the terrible stock saddle. I moved forward because the back was too wide for my sit bones and all my weight was being supported on my soft tissue unless I slid up until my sit bones supported the rest of my weight

If you've never had a professional bike fit, I would do that. It will fix your saddle issues without guess work, and may fix a lot of other things you may not be aware of. If not now, think about getting one in the future from a reputable bike fit professional.

... for the advice. I've adjusted it so that it's pointing just fractionally downwards and will try that out at the weekend. Just a couple of those little grooves makes a big difference in the angle!

If you decide to make adjustments yourself, start small!

I also advise getting fit at your LBS. Tilting the saddle too far up it the most painful thing I have ever done.

I've also had other factors. I switched to a Brooks leather saddle. When my core gets lazy, I slide on the saddle. It keeps me honest, and reminds me to use my whole body to stay in position. I learned from spinning class that my core needed more work.

You also might want to take a look at the saddle itself.
