Composer positioning issues in iOS

It’s merged in Discourse main branch, so now it depends of how you update.

Any chance the fixes may still make it to stable? :crossed_fingers:

It really should, even though the devs actively discouraging using stable. This behavior makes discourse nearly unusable on iOS. It’s as bad as it gets.

I will look this week if I can backport it, might not be super easy but will try.

I didn’t forget this, but this is not stable enough for me to backport, I still have been doing fixes as of today. Im working a lot on a better and more longterm solution, so we can be more prepared to Apple/iOS deciding to break everything.

iOS 26.2 just got released and from a quick check, I could no longer reproduce this issue (or any other) — not even on stable which is what we use. I checked both with the the Discourse app and Safari, if relevant. Did Apple finally nailed the issues with Safari?

Yes. I will close this, and don’t take this as I don’t care, I literally lost 3 months of my life to Apple deciding to break everything, but… there are mostly 3 cases:

  • we could do a fix and we did it
  • we couldn’t do an immediate change and are working on it
  • there’s nothing we can do until Apple fixes it

Anyways, afaik, it’s mostly working correctly on 26.2. There are few problematic modals + keyboards situations, but we should have a solution for this in January.
