Enter Button in order to send chat

I have known that if you hit enter it sends your message and if you use shift+enter it creates a new line.

Now earlier today it was working but for some reason I see the mobile send button that looks like a little paperplane and using enter merely creates a new line for me now.

Did I perhaps press a wrong button? Maybe there was an update? I am not sure yet.

I have just been given the URL https://wolfery.com/?console.mode=keyboard which seems to have resolved the symptom, but I have to wonder what was the cause.

No worries!

That type of console interface is meant for mobile users without a physical keyboard.
Unfortunately there are no fail-safe way to detect the existance of a physical keyboard. Instead I rely on detecting if you have a touch screen - or rather if you have (pointer: coarse) which often indicates a touch screen.

So, maybe you’ve installed some sort of pointer device that triggered it? Maybe a new screen with touch capabilities?

Anyway. As you’ve been informed, you can change the behavior with:

URL Behavior
https://wolfery.com/?console.mode=keyboard Assume physical keyboard
https://wolfery.com/?console.mode=touch Assume virtual keyboard
https://wolfery.com/?console.mode=auto Default auto detect mode

EDIT
You can also trigger this behavior if you activate the “Device toolbar” in the browser’s dev tools:

GASPS!!!

Oh, my greatness! This does make a bit more sense.

I’ve been using a temporary laptop for the last week and a bit. And it is indeed a touch-screen laptop.

And! Today I was experimenting with a browser cursor automation extension for Chrome. (Which I have hopefully removed now since it didn’t do what I wanted it to do)

The pieces are falling into place. Now, I just need to see how I can fool Wolfery into thinking I have a keyboard and not a touchscreen, hehe.

Thank you for the swift response!
