Hi everyone! In our community ( https://community.ankihub.net/ ), we used to be able to hold down on the like button on mobile/IOS and choose reactions on posts/comments in a thread, like a heart or thumbs up or thumbs down. A year ago, after an update (I believe), we lost the ability to select reac…

Hello :waving_hand: The issue is that the Discourse Jira plugin adds position: relative to .post-controls .actions. assets/stylesheets/common/discourse-jira.scss 56e43f6ab .post-controls { .actions { position: relative; …

I tried disabling all (checked all 3 boxes) first and it still was occurring. I also tried just checking the first 2 boxes and same thing Is there another combination I should try?

And this is iPhone 15/iOS26.0.1/Safari: [IMG_6051] Same thing with iPad, and DiscourseHub. So, for me it works and has been worked in every Discourse I’m using :man_shrugging:

@jagster Does it still work in our community for you? : https://community.ankihub.net/
