Community Forum search doesn't work in Firefox or Safari

Posted on February 5, 2020

First time in this community and I did a search for topics near my question. I get a list of search results that pops down from the search window. I can hover over the various results and it turns blue and shows an “enter” symbol at the end of the line. If I click or hit enter, the drop-down list disappears and I’m back at my search term.

This was on Safari so I switched to Firefox. Same problem. It wasn’t until I switched to Edge that hitting enter or clicking would open the results of my search.

I can’t believe DigitalOcean would knowingly exclude all webkit and gecko-based browsers in favor of Chromium, so this must be a bug?

Hi there,

This does indeed appear to be a bug. I’ll escalate this internally to our team to get looked at asap!

Thanks for letting us know about it :)
