My composer toolbar overflow/plus button is no longer working on mobile. Not sure if this is a bug or something on my end (I did recently change the color palette of my default them – but changing it around doesn’t resolve the issue).

On Firefox and using the Discourse App app (iOS) on mobile for [my hosted Forum](https://ankataa.discourse.group/), when I click on the plus symbol in the composer’s toolbar, the overflow options pop up but they appear ghosted out / dark and I cannot click on them.

### Screenshots

Overflow button:

Unclickable options (when I try to click them, the menu closes entirely and I am back at a composer that did not react to my click):

### On Meta

I checked viewing this Meta forum on mobile using firefox and I don’t get the issue.

I click here:

And I get options that i can click:

On desktop everything works fine.

Can any recommend where to look to fix this issue? Or is it a potential bug?

Are you on the most updated version of Discourse? If not, does updating it help?

Yes, most updated version according to [this guide](https://meta.discourse.org/t/finding-what-version-of-discourse-youre-using/104326/1).

I also found this related topic and I posted in there since the issue seems related
