This PR, or something similar, is a partial fix.  
[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/3795](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/3795)

I am fairly certain that for forums that are not using a custom header it is safe to set  
`.d-header{position: fixed;}` as both a desktop and a mobile customization. That will keep the header fixed to the top of the screen on ios devices.

For forums that do have a custom header, one possible workaround, combined with this PR, is to set the forum’s body background color to match the custom header’s background for small screens.
