Can someone explain to hopeless idiot Red Wiggler how to turn autofill back on when posting on this board? ---

What’s autofill in the context of discourse? You mean when you hit # and get the little pop-up drop-down thingy? ---

When I start typing a word I get a list of possible completed words at the top of the, uh, keyboard. If my desired word pops up among them I can quit typing and just select the completed word. ---

Oh you mean above the keyboard on your phone? The phone’s keyboard? Is it missing everywhere, or just here on the dope? ---

My fault for not being specific. I’m on a Fire. When I hit the Reply button, a touch keypad comes into view, allowing me to type my post. I’m not getting autofill suggestions at the top of the keypad as I have in the past. This is not happening at my other boards. Since it is unique to this one, I’m wondering if I have accidentally changed a setting. ---

@Red_Wiggler that is a unique situation. There may (or may not) be a Discourse / site-specific setting for that. Recommend you reach out to the mods. Good luck! ---

> [@Beesnest](#): > > how to spoiler alertThis text will be blurred Where is the Eye? > under settings Icon (no EYE) Youtube said there is an EYE icon! highlight this first then hit settings I don’t see any eye icon but at the bottom right there is a rectangular icon that looks like a monitor. While composing a post you can use that to preview it. ---
