Autocomplete field search results styling issues

Created on 28 May 2021, over 3 years ago
Updated 1 December 2023, 12 months ago

Problem/Motivation

1. When text is wider than an autocomplete field, the results list is wider than the field.

2. For themes other than Claro and Seven, when in a popup, the autocomplete results are "hidden" and require scrolling within the popup.

Steps to reproduce

1. clean install drupal, I use a standard profile

2. claro as an admin theme

3. add a new field to the article content type,

4. I use a content reference with the autocomplete widget.

5. Add the content reference field to article content type and select page as the referenced types

6. create a super long title with a basic page content type

7. test the autocomplete widget, see the below screenshot demonstrating the issue

OLD Testing steps with the linkit module (which I believe should be added to the linkit module.)

1. Install Drupal with Umami profile.

2. Install Linkit module.

3. Configure Full HTML to use Linkit.

4. Make theme the admin theme.

5. Created 3 pages with very long titles that have "test" in them.

6. Edit content in Full HTML format, add a link, and search using "test".

7. Result: See slightly wider results. Expected: Results are same width as autocomplete field.

8. Search using "about".

9. Result: Width is same width as autocomplete field as expected.

10. Note also that for Claro and Seven, the results list goes over the button and extends beyond the popup when there are many results whereas the other themes show some of the results hidden and require scrolling. This could be fixed at the same time.

Proposed resolution

Update CSS and/or JS to ensure width is correct and results are visible.

Remaining tasks

1. Create patch
2. Review patch
3. Commit

User interface changes

Autocomplete results width will be same width as autocomplete field and results will fully visible.

API changes

Data model changes

    This issue is being reviewed by the kind folks in Slack, #needs-review-queue-initiative. We are working to keep the size of Needs Review queue [2700+ issues] to around 400 (1 month or less), following Review a patch or merge request as a guide.

    Seems like a perfect scenario for a test.

    Steps to reproduce:-

    1. Install Drupal, using standard profile.

    2. Use Claro as an admin theme.

    3. add a new field to the article content type.

    4. I used a content reference with the autocomplete widget.

    5. Add the content reference field to the article content type and select the page as the referenced type.

    6. Create a super long title with a basic page content type.

    7. Tested the autocomplete widget.

    See the below screenshot demonstrating the before and after patch.

    It fixes the issue so moving the issue to RTBC

    Please read the tags also. This was tagged for tests which are still needed.

    Just plain rerolls may no longer receive credit I believe just fyi

    Thanks!
