A controversial feature, one I even railed against in the olden days, seems to have stopped working. Pressing ctrl+f here, or on QT3, just uses my browser’s search. It no longer pops up the Discourse search bar in “thread” mode.
I’ve tried Firefox and Chrome, logged in or logged out.
I’ve search this forum and google and I can’t see any announcement that this feature was removed.
So I don’t really know what category to put this in. i.e. should that feature still work, and it’s broken, therefore it’s a bug. Was the feature removed intentionally? Is it just me, can others see this failure? (I’m guessing it is just me, as I can’t see anyone else talking about it)
That’s funny, I recently read old topics about how Discourse hijacked the Ctrl+f feature of the browser.
I understand the intent, but in 7+ years of using Discourse, it always annoyed me more than it helped me. I’m happy to see the feature gone, especially since there’s the \ shortcut to replace it (even though it requires pressing two keys on a French keyboard).
