Chrome mobile update broke NodeBB menu

teh_g

I personally have not been able to test since, as I have not received the Chrome update that some got today.

A few users on my forums have reported that the menu button is not responsive after updating to the latest Chrome version. I'm using Persona and am running 1.7.4 with the Bootswatch hotfix.

@teh_g Thanks for the report. We've been able to reproduce this as well. I'll work on getting a fix out today.

@teh_g okay so it appears this is due to a bug introduced in the latest release of Chrome. I've submitted an issue but since it's Friday it may take a while to be addressed. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=7545

In the meantime, I'll release a patch which you should be able to install.

PitaJ

Alright, I've released an updated version of the library: [email protected]. To update to it, you should be able to run npm i nodebb-theme-persona and it will hopefully update to the latest version of the module. If that doesn't work, you can try deleting node_modules completely and then running npm install.

@pitaj Just installed [email protected]. I'll ask my users to test.

Looks like it is still broken :(.

PitaJ

@teh_g if you've already tried deleting node_modules, try this:

cd node_modules/nodebb-theme-persona
npm install pulling@latest --no-save

teh_g

@pitaj I completely skipped the node_modules delete. I'll give that a go and see if it works.

teh_g

Looks like it is working now. Thanks for the help @PitaJ

It seems the Chromium team is aware of this issue now and this regression should be resolved in the next version

Thanks for the workaround.

What do you mean with remedy? Sorry I don't follow!

PitaJ

@jenkler I provided a few fixes in this thread. What have you tried?

Mikael Jenkler

I have just trid to update to the latest chrome version Nothing else, sorry!

PitaJ

@jenkler Ok, well try the fixes I provided earlier in the thread. If you still have issues, let me know.

teh_g

@PitaJ It looks like a similar issue is happening in 1.8.0, but this time with the chat window on Chrome mobile.

Let me know if this warrants another thread, this is what someone on my forum said: "In mobile chrome the on screen keyboard covers up the text field and the send button doesn’t work."

PitaJ

@teh_g not happening for me. Tell him to clear his cache, try a different browser, etc.

Also, tell him to disable the skin if he has one.
