 Topic: iPhone/iPad problem
Posted: 28 August 2015 at 7:55pm |

Been running WWF for quite some time with few issued.
Now, all of a sudden, when looking at posts, and needed to edit it or whatever other reason, nothing seems to work.
I can click on the pull down menu for the post, click on "Edit" and nothing happens.
Thi does NOT happen with PC's. Just Apple products.

I wish someone would respond about iPad/iPhone not opening the pull down menus.
Feeling a bit neglected here/ :(

It does appear that updates to Sarafi on the IPad have broken many of the links particularly in drop downs.
Will look in to fixing the issue in future updates.

If possible, do you have any idea which file(s) affect this.
Then, at least for now, I can revert back to the older ones.
Right now, I'm getting lots of flack from my members.

The way in which the drop down links work has not been changed since being introduced back around 2008.
It is not changes to Web Wiz Forums that has broken the links from working but changes to Safari on the IPad and IPhone that has stopped the links in drop downs from working.
Rolling back files in Web Wiz Forums would make no differences as there are no changes in Web Wiz Forums, the changes are to Safari.
It may well be a bug if Safari on the IPad and IPhone causing the issue, but a lack of any developer or debugging tools on these platforms make it impossible to debug.
It may be a case of having to completely rewrite the way drop downs work in Web Wiz Forums until can find a new way that works for Safari on IPads and IPhones.
This unfortunately means there is no quick fix for this issue.

It appears the issue is a CSS problem with Safari on the IPad. A quick fix for now is to open the CSS style sheet for your forum and find the following
.dropDownMenu a:hover, .dropDownMenu a:visited:hover, .dropDownStatusBar a:hover {
color : #FFFFFF;
display:block;
background: #9AACD6;
width: 100%;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
}
|
and change it to;
.dropDownMenu a:hover, .dropDownMenu a:visited:hover, .dropDownStatusBar a:hover {
color : #FFFFFF;
//display:block;
background: #9AACD6;
width: 100%;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
}
|
This will mean that the block hover affect when using drop downs no-longer works, but will for the moment allow the drop down menu links to work in Safari on the IPad.
