My forum just updated and now the header is not sticky on mobile.
Very difficult to navigate or use chat now, how can I resolve this?

Does it also happen in [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true)?

Ah no that fixes it so it must be a plugin or component right?

I think it’s the chat plugin

You might be able to override these css changes in a custom theme component, but I guess there is a reason why they were added

Hmm it happens unless I tick
Disable all client-side plugin customizations

Do you know what CSS I need to add back in to fix this?
I don’t have a lot of time now but want to fix this bug now

It’s already fixed, so it’s surprising you are in this situation if you just updated.
The fix is in the release:

Not working even by adding in the code to my theme:
```plaintext
html.ios-device body {
overflow: auto !important;
}
html.ios-device.composer-open body,
html.ios-device.has-full-page-chat body {
overflow: hidden !important;
}
```

Can you be more precise when you say “I just updated”, was it few hours ago, or actually yesterday?

My host updated it, literally about an hour ago, but in the Admin it says updated a day ago. I guess it’s an older version?

It depends what strategy your host is using for updates. Can you share who you’re hosted with?

Yes it’s these:
> **[Managed Discourse Hosting - Communiteq](https://www.communiteq.com/)**
I’ve emailed them to ask if we can update again.
(How can I see which exact version I’m on? And which versions are available?)

Is it about [https://forum.tardis.guide/](https://forum.tardis.guide/) which you linked in your profile? That’s on [Commits · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commits/75d61b4) and, based on the plugins, it seems to be hosted by communiteq.

Yes that’s right. Looks like the latest fix is not live.
I’ve asked them to update. But I did put that CSS into my theme and it hasn’t helped.

Also getting reports that the sidebar doesn’t stick on iPad, is this the same issue?

Not sure but yes this might related, I recommend you ask your hoster to update your instance to the last commit of the release branch.

They are being unresponsive at the moment.

I couldn’t wait any longer so added to my theme:
```plaintext
html.ios-device body {
overflow: visible !important;
}
```
I hope this doesn’t break anything.
