Forum software or iOS 11?

Last couple of days, I’ve had to press the forum category (lounge, windows, etc) twice. The first time brings up the ‘gear’, the second time the questions. I find this somewhat irritating.

Is this a change in iOS, or your forum software?

Thanks

    I’m not able to reproduce this on iOS 11 on my iPad Air 2. The first tap does bring up the gear icon, but then it loads the category I tapped. No second tap needed.

    Oh well, just be my system. Don't know why it’s happening or how to stop it.

    Thanks

    Hi @rlgleason51,

    Which device type are you using, does it still happen after a device restart, and in which browser(s)?

    iPad 10.5 Pro and safari. Yes, restarts do not change.

    Thanks for that info.

    What I'm seeing on my iPad Air 2 after loading the main https://discussions.agilebits.com page in Safari on iOS 11:

    Then it's a single tap on a category name (e.g. Account) to open the list of discussions for that category.

    If you've got a content blocker enabled (under Settings > Safari > Content Blockers) that might be what's causing it to behave differently for you. Nothing else comes to my mind at the moment.

    I don't have the option for content blockers. Could it be referenced by a different name?

    @rlgleason51: That's definitely what it's called. Drives me a bit crazy that not everything in Settings shows up in a search, but here it is:

    It's in a list with a bunch of other stuff in iOS Settings > Safari, so it's easy to miss. You may, however, need to have one installed for that to appear (Firefox Focus is free). Can't recall for sure. Anyway, I wish that I had the "problem" you're describing, as I often find it difficult to navigate desktop sites which expect a mouse on iOS. haha

    The forum software does not support iOS 10.5 properly I believe, as I have reported before:

    https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/79731/forum-acting-weird-on-ipad-pro-10-5-hover

    I use the same content blockers on my iPad 4 and my iPad Pro 10.5" so I don't believe content blockers are to blame here.

    My guess is that the forum software does not recognise the new iPad Pro resolution and thus treats our beautiful iOS devices as ugly PC's instead of iPads...

    Nope. Don't have it.

  • I think XIII's theory may explain it.

    You’re both probably right. I’teeeting Apple support about my safari settings are

    Based on a previous discussion, Apple appears to, in iOS 11, have altered content blockers requirements.

    "Maybe these expert-only instructions for downgrading AdGuard for iOS can be of inspiration? (downloading an old IPA)

    [removed; we cannot recommend customers follow these instructions]

    Note that this won't work with the newest version of iTunes on the Mac (12.7), as Apple removed App support..."

    After this discussion, I don't think this is related to content blockers; and "downgrading" is a world of hurt and not recommended by AgileBits or Apple (from everything I've seen).
