Searching for a word while editing a page

[Meric Ayman]

What are we doing:

- editing a confluence page

- press ctrl+f

- searching for a word

- going through the results with ENTER or Next

Expected reaction:

- Confluence highlights the searched words and scrolls automatically to the next one if there are words down the page

What really happens:

 the words which can be seen without scrolling are highlighted in yellow.

For more results down the page, we have to manually scroll down.

Why isn't the page automatically scrolling down?

Thank you Davin.

I think I have found the problem. Looks like it is a 3rd party Theme app.

Hi Meric,

Thank you for letting us know you were able to narrow down the issue. Is there a specific app that was causing this? It may be useful to anyone in the future who experiences the same issue.

Do you know what versions of Confluence you are using? I have a 6.15.6 and a 7.6.0 environment and I was unable to replicate that behavior in either environment. In both enthronements I test Confluences find functionality and the browser's built-in find functionality. In both instances the page auto-scrolled to the appropriate spot.
