My keyboard won’t clear after I have posted?

Using Apple ipad.
After I have posted, my keyboard/keypad doesn’t clear automatically or manually from the screen.
I have to use the back button and go back to Recent Discussions.
Any ideas folks?

    Is it only happening on some threads?

    Usually happens when you type something yet dont post as quite often it'll save as a draft - Find I have to go on to the desktop version to delete as there is a draft button on the mobile site

    Only heard of this twice before Soundas and both times the users had previously been viewing unusual pornography.

    Sorry mate, can’t help

    But you could ask @Carter and @T_C_E how they resolved it :-)

    Try clearing your browser’s cache (google it if you’re not sure how) and try turning the iPad off then on.

    Still having the same problem with my keypad staying in place once I have selected to use it to post or navigate.
     I can only clear it by going back into Forum or Recent Discussions or coming off the site altogether and logging back in.....only happens on CL.
    Also I still can’t view Likes & Lol’s in posts other than posts I have made myself?
    Thirdly, from time to time, some posts or sections of paragraphs appear highlighted in light blue.
    Once again, I have no problems other than on CL?
    All of these problems started about a month or two back.....all at the same time?
    Maybe it was at the time the changes to the site took place a while back.....could have been?
    Very very annoying.

    I’ve had similar problems using - but this is a bit of a test. I think it may be Safari that’s the problem. I stated getting weird characters when trying to embed videos, a similar problem with the keyboard not going away, and the cursor getting placed after “Enter text here”. Try using Chrome. So far, those problems have stopped.

    Thinking about it Apple did a big update around that time too.
    I am utterly hopeless with computers and get super nervous about trying anything new.....invariably doing something pretty major like installing Google chrome will screw me up bit time......very very nervous to do it.
    As most of my usage is on CL maybe I’m going to have to bite the bullet.

    What do you mean by unusual pornography?

    Last time, I spoke to Dave Mehmet, he was telling me about his blisters.

    Same problem for me. I refresh on the icon and keyboard drops. There are other glitches too
