Strange word suggestion bar behaviour. Ancient Android tablet

Site Feedback
1

Ok, I can mostly spell, but I find the word suggestion bar helpful even if it’s just to speed up my tragically slow typing.

So, normally when I’m typing a reply, I have a bar above the keyboard that brings up a list of words as I’m typing. Also I have fat fingers so it helps with that shit too.

Tonight, this bar has disappeared when I’m typing a reply, but, as I created this topic and typed the title in the title box, it re-appeared, but then when I started to type in the main text box, it disappeared again.

Logged out and logged back in, been through every setting I can find, but it’s either incredibly well hidden or I’m more stupid than I previously thought.

This is the only site it’s misbehaving on.

Help?

1-3 it’s your error

7-4 it’s a device issue

20-1 bar

Moar codeine required.

Alcohol induced, without doubt.

I reckon you’re dead on there, but it’s weird that it’s only this site, if I’d screwed up a device setting, it would be on every forum, not just this one.

Did you not read my earlier post? I’ve run out of alcohol. Well, alcohol I like to drink anyway. There’s shitloads of Baileys left.

Definately, considering it works exclusively in the title box when creating a topic, but not in the main text box either creating a topic, or replying to one. Really odd.

Baileys is your friend :grinning:

No, it’s Satan’s vomit.

No redeeming features whatsoever.

Now, this is odd too, I’m now posting from my phone rather than my tablet and the bar thingy is still working on that.

You need to change your tablet(s)

You might well be right, on both counts
