    DropDown lists not working in Chrome 47+

    Hi,

    Chrome 47 has just rolled out and now our dropdown selectors in the backend aren't working. This appears to be caused by a known bug in Angular 1.2.14 and lower: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=565132

    Umbraco runs 1.1.5 which means that it is affected by this bug. Is the Umbraco team aware of this? How far off is a fix?

    Thanks,

    Josh

    EDIT: This has also been reported here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=565910

    Hi Joshua,

    Can you please make a report on the issue tracker http://issues.umbraco.org/

    As far as I know Angular is currently planned to be upgraded from v1.1.5 only with the release of Umbraco v8 which is quite a way off.

    I just found an issue in the tracker for this: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-7496

    Without working dropdowns our backend is pretty unusable, so I hope the Umbraco team reconsiders their timeframe on an AngularJS update.

    Hi,

    can confirm this issue, as all dropdowns stopped working in chrome 47. this is quite a big issue, as eg in my company we have chrome as the only browser installed. so at the moment, we are not able to work in the backend.

    thx, andreas

    Same here.

    Luckily the dropdowns are still working in IE so I'm switching to this browser until it works in Chrome again.

    Can still use it, not a great method, but . . .

    Click arrow to drop down, while down press first letter content. If more than one press the letter again until the value you want is in the box.

    Press Save, this will enter the value.

    Hope it helps

    I've updated the issue here with a workaround while Google rolls out it's changes:

    I think there may also be an issue with choosing icons for doctypes, works fine in firefox but not in chrome. You choose your icon and it doesn't appear, as though it's not selected at all.

    Chrome has updated (seemingly released 4 hours ago!).

    Dropdowns now working again. Check for version: 47.0.2526.106

    I'm still having this issue on chrome I can see the drop down but I can change the selected value when logged in as admin - it works fine on FF and IE. I haven't done anything that would throw this out. any advice would be greatly appreciated

    Hi Hannah,

    What version of Umbraco are you running?

    Hannah - if you go to the Chrome menu (three lines) -> Help -> About Google Chrome can you please paste what version you have?

    If it's lower than 47.0.2526.106 then that would explain your issues. If it is lower is there an update button, what OS are you running?

    sorry only seeing this now - didn't get the email for some reason. Anyway it seems to be fixed now even though I haven't added anything to the code ? hopefully that's the last of the issue.

    Thank you very much for the help!

    Yes - so to quickly explain. Google Chrome released an update to how they send mouse events on dropdowns. This broke drop downs on any site / web app that was using "old" versions of Angular - which Umbraco does.

    The Umbraco team released a patch to workaround this - but if you didn't install this then luckily Chrome have since fixed the problem they introduced in the browser (Google Chrome auto updates so you're now on the latest version but you might not have been when you first posted).

    So in theory - there is nothing now to patch in Umbraco :) Hope that explains it!
