[Bug] Drop-down doesn't appear when typing in the Wikidata search box
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

Since 1 May 2019 some users noticed a malfunction with the Wikidata search box (top right corner).

Peek 2019-05-02 11-07.gif (298×498 px, 49 KB)

Steps to reproduce:

  • click on the search box
  • type "test"
  • the turning wheel icon appears, then disappears, and the suggestion drop-down doesn't show up
  • when pressing the arrow down key or enter, it appears

Note: depending on the word that is typed, the menu seems to appear or not. "test" doesn't work, "foo" works.

Tested so far on Chrome and Firefox.

Interesting! I don't get this on wikidata.org. how/where do you see this?

Sorry, it’s unrelated – I got that on Special:Search, it happens when you type into the search box there (instead of the one on the top right of every page).

I'd like to add that the same problem also affects property/value suggestions. Started evening/late afternoon May 1. Tested Google, Firefox.

@Aklapper sorry for the confusion – I happened to also notice the pushPending issue, but I think it’s independent of this one.

Moving this to our watching column, as we don't have any front end engineers to help out.

Might be the same issue as T222333: Wikidata search dropdown is blank when there's an exact name match, not sure.

Is this perhaps caused by the fix for T172937? The timing looks like it would fit.

@Nikki yeah, looking at the patch that seems quite likely to me :/
