Fixed iOS 13 can’t enter search term

[lantek]

Affected version

Xenforo.com

From the home screen of the forum on iOS 13 final, you can’t activate the search text box.

I have this in both, Chrome and Safari. The keyboard appears only after I tripple click in the text field.

Also currently affects Chrome and Safari on iOS 13.1 through beta 4.

iOS 13.1 public release will be out in the next couple hours, will have to see if that fixes it.

 

[Boothby]

The problem still remains, also with IOS 13.1

This problem is and for me too :S

Our members using iOS 13.x are reporting the same. I have no iOS devices so I can't confirm first-hand.

Feedback - Search function

If I try to use the basic search function and click on “search” to enter a term to search for, nothing happens, literally nothing but the advanced search function seems to work perfectly! Annoying Kevin, please fix it.

Is there a fix for this?

When you tap the searchfield you need to tap it a few times, then it become active...

When you tap the searchfield you need to tap it a few times, then it become active...

I can confirm it too on iOS 13.1.2

 

[Steve F]

Still the same in iOS 13.2 beta, no issue anywhere else except XF 2 sites.

 

[Finexes]

Same here, iOS 13.1.2

I can confirm it.

Soooooooo, what you're saying is that you can reconfirm, the reconfirm, of the reconfirm, of the reconfirm, of the confirm. That this issue exists and a triple tap will allow focus of the search box.

Can anyone confirm?

This is also the issue when you have Tapatalk installed, only tapa link works and i can't activate the button for a browser to continue.

While we may be able to fix or workaround the search input issue, I can’t imagine that a fix or workaround would resolve the Tapatalk issue so you will need to contact them for support.

Very likely unrelated to this issue.

 

[Sebastiaan]

Clear, i will notify TT also about this.

 

[donwon]

Our users are also experiencing this issue including me!

 

[HJW]

Yep lots complaining about this

 

[XF Bug Bot]

Thank you for reporting this issue. It has now been resolved and we are aiming to include it in a future XF release (2.1.5).

Change log:

Back out of a few older iOS workarounds which seem to only be applicable to very old versions of iOS related to inputs within fixed elements in order to fix some issues these cause with iOS 13.

Any changes made as a result of this issue being resolved may not be rolled out here until later.

The next version of XF will likely be a few weeks away. If you'd like to implement this fix now, you will need to download the copy of core-compiled.js that we are using here:
