ktsus Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Hi! I have a scrolling section in the footer of my website with some text alternating with an emoji, and on my phone I can only see the floating emojis. Attached images showing how it looks on my phone vs in the editor. This seems to only be happening in chrome, I see the text correctly on other mobile browsers. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

ktsus Posted August 8, 2023 Author Share Posted August 8, 2023 Interesting.. checked with a few friends and they see it also on iphones on chrome. It just occurred to me that it might be related to the fact that it's a clickable email link! It looks like when I remove the link the issue goes away. I'd like to keep the link if possible.. so I guess now I'm seeking a way to avoid chrome doing anything weird to email links 🤔 I found this related thread about phone numbers Link to comment
ktsus Posted August 9, 2023 Author Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) Scratch that, removing the email link didn't fix the issue. Not sure why I saw the text appear earlier when I did that and not now! Also I have an iphone XS in case useful info for anyone reading this. Edited August 9, 2023 by ktsus incorrect phone type Link to comment

ktsus Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 Ok after seeing this problem on a few iPads too, I eventually figured out that the issue is specifically happening because of something chrome is doing with the email address on certain devices. I was close earlier in thinking it might be the hyperlink, but seemed to just be the email string itself. I tested out changing it to other text strings without an "@" symbol and it displayed properly. As a hack for now, I just ended up putting a space on either side of the "@" symbol in the scrolling block so that it didn't read it as an email. Link to comment
arianajade Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 I had the same issue here on all mobile devices using a Chrome browser. After sending in a help ticket, a specialist let me know this issue was escalated. Link to comment
