Mike, this has actually happened to several other users who have posted in this Incline forum. There were no errors, because you couldn't even click into either Username or Password fields or type into them either.

The problem did not persist in the joomla login page, just within the S5 box.

Hello,

I still need to see a live copy where the issue occurs so I can test this. I am not seeing any issues on my currently installed copy but can test further if needed. I have seen issues with added padding values in bootstrap forcing font outside of the actual inputs so it looks like nothing is there.

Several users posted the same problem in this Incline forum:

Users couldn't even click into the Username or Password fields at all, let alone enter text. So it never even got to the point of a login error.

It was only in the S5 login box, not the normal Joomla login page.

UPDATE: For whatever it's worth, disabling ReCaptcha worked. Then I re-enabled Re-Captcha, and the login form (S5 box) via the top button works fine. Not sure why, but it's now working.

Hello,

All those threads are closed and have posted solutions. The issue is based on certain padding or font size values added by Joomla's bootstrap that can cause issues. It would also appear to the user that they can't enter text when in reality it is just being padding outside of the box itself. I don't see how recaptcha would affect this functionality but it is possible you had something cached that was causing problems.

As I see in your red text it appears fine now for you after re-enabling so maybe the cache got cleared in this process.

Regards,

That might make sense if I had cache enabled on my Joomla site, but it's currently disabled. And it wasn't the browser cache, because this odd behavior occurred in three different browsers.

But since the problem is now fixed, there's no need to keep this thread growing further. Perhaps it might help someone down the road, though.

Thanks Mike!
