I’ve noticed on Meta and other Discourse instances that when using the timeline on mobile (specifically the floating timeline), after selecting a post to navigate to, the full-screen view (.timeline-fullscreen) removes the ‘show’ class as expected, however, the timeline still slightly visible at the bottom of the screen.

You must click it again for the floating timeline to fully reappear correctly.

This behavior feels like it might be related to an event propagation issue or something similar. Has anyone else experienced this or is there a known workaround?

TIA

I think it was reported before in

> As per the video: After using the navigator slider on mobile, the navigator header sticks around visible at the bottom of the screen.

I knew there will be something- of course I searched for “timeline” for 15 minutes and nothing came up. haha.

It can be merged though I am alarmed it wasn’t picked up for 4 months now!

Definitely a propagation issue. I tested it as follows:

clicking anywhere after the class ‘show’ is being removed triggers the js that brings back the timeline and removes the .timeline-fullscreen div. So should be a simple fix tbh.

Duplicate of [Topic header persists at the bottom of the screen after using mobile navigator](https://meta.discourse.org/t/topic-header-persists-at-the-bottom-of-the-screen-after-using-mobile-navigator/306738), solution is over there!
