At least in Safari on Mac and iOS, I’ve noticed that hitting “return” in the search box on the search results page doesn’t cause a new search to happen.

Reproduced in Firefox on Windows. The drop-down that you get on clicking the search button on desktop works, but the search box in the actual search page doesn’t respond to pressing Enter.

Thanks guys. This is a known (Meta specific) issue. We’re working to upgrade Ember to version 3, and are currently testing this change out here on Meta. We have a fix for Enter not working on the search page, but need to do a bit more testing before it’s deployed. Should be out by next week - things are a bit slow right now with many people out for the holidays.

Sure @j.jaffeux can you close this one when complete?

Fixed and deployed. Weird, I could swear I had fixed it…
