I can't type anything when Retro Game Emulator is active

Hi There,

Thanks for your message. This is tricky since the game needs access to the keyboard. I’ll take a look at what’s possible though.

Hello Grimmdude,

Thanx again for that great plugin, we have an arcade cabinet e-shop and it’s cool for our customers to play NES on our site ??

But, they must choose between buying Arcade Cabinets or Playing NES, but they can’t do both ! Because when i enable Nes emultaor, i can’t fill any form on the site, even the checkout form…

So i had to disable the emulator, which makes me gloomy… i was so proud of it ! I even made it AZERTY ready after hours of research … ??

If you get time for that, you would resolve that mystery and make us happy ??

Thank you !

Hi,

After more research I’ve concluded that because of the nature of the emulator it requires full access to the keyboard, thus disabling typing on the page. If you have this emulator on the same page as a checkout form then it will definitely cause you trouble. I think you’ll need to give this emulator a dedicated page on the site where typing isn’t required.

Hello Grimmdude,

Thank you for the update ! ??

Tried your emulator again, on a dedicated page, but still can’t type on the forms that are on other pages…

You can check it on one of my sites here : https://boutique-retrogaming.com/nes/

Glad if you could help ! ??

Have a nice day.
