Can the Search box history be made editable on the forum list page please

POSTED BY: csiman 2 months, 2 weeks ago

Currently if you start typing in the search box it brings up a drop down of previous searches which you can highlight. If you select one and try to edit it, then the search box clears itself out.

e.g say I previously searched for "+cycling +pavement", then if I start typing "+cy" then the previous search is shown and I can select it. But the moment I start trying to add to the search, it is blanked out so I have to type it all in again.

Are you clicking again rather than just typing?

Ah yes, when you click on the search box it clears.

You can still edit it, but you have to use your arrow keys to move the text cursor around the box rather than clicking with the mouse. I do that naturally anyway - hence I didn't find the problem straight away.

I guess it's because the word "Search.." is in there as default and it'd cause more problems if that didn't delete by default.

Yeah, it's designed to clear the word search that's in there. I've not noticed the problem with this one as I use the keyboard like you ducky. The word search could go above it but I think most people use the keyboard so it shouldn't matter too much.
