The search function on these forums seem to not work on my Nexus 6. I'm using Chrome browser and it is viewing the site via the mobile option.

When I click on the search button the bar pops up, however when I touch the search bar to type the keyboard pops up and then quickly disappears along with the search bar.

Any clues? The search works if I force load desktop version.

This has been reported before and I thought it was fixed. Just tested and I can reproduce. Passing up!

Yes, I've noticed this for a quite some time. It happens on my HTC stock browser and Dolphin as well as Chrome.

I found that the 'Advanced Search' function works ok. I enter the key words, leave all options as default and hit 'Search', just takes a couple of seconds longer than using the Search button.
