Can't edit anything by using UC browser on mobile phone

  • Unknown's avatar

    This is Jon from UCWeb, I wanna report an important issue.

    Description:
    1. open m.wordpress.com on mobile by using UC browser 9.9.2
    2. log in
    3. click “edit”, the page can’t finish loading data, just display the popup window “Beep beep boop”
    4. there is no problem by using Chrome on my mobile
    5. I checked it and found it was caused by the user-agent detection mechanism on WordPress.
    For example:
    if I use this UA on UC browser, it can’t load the page
    Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.2.2; zh-CN; HUAWEI G750-T01 Build/HuaweiG750-T01) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 UCBrowser/9.9.3.478 U3/0.8.0 Mobile Safari/533.1

    but if I use another UA, it works well
    Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.2.2; zh-CN; HUAWEI G750-T01 Build/HuaweiG750-T01) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 UCBrowser/9.9.3.478 U3/0.8.0 Mobile Safari/534.30

    the difference is the version of webkit: AppleWebKit/533.1 and AppleWebKit/534.30

    From our data, Everyday over 200,000 Android users access wordpress.com via UC browser, so we think this is a big issue and would like to share the information to WordPress and hope to get your help ASAP.
