MAP testing won’t work on iPad

There are three main reasons that MAP testing won’t work on an ipad:

Screen Resolution is too low

It really isn’t too low. Try one of these solutions:

  • Switch to another browser. This seems to only be a problem with Safari.
  • Turn off “Request Desktop Version” in settings. The reason Safari has a problem with MAP testing is that Safari requests the desktop version by default and the MAP people aren’t smart enough to check the browser and send the mobile version anyway. You can change this in Settings -> Safari.
  • Install the NWEA Secure Testing App.

Pop-ups are being blocked

  • Firefox (Windows): Click the Menu icon to the right of the address bar (the icon with three parallel lines.) Select Options, then go to the Privacy & Security tab. Clear the Block pop-up windows checkbox, or click Exceptions… then add https://test.mapnwea.org to the list of allowed websites
  • Chrome: Click the Menu icon to the right of the address bar (it is the icon with three vertical dots). Select Settings > Advanced > Privacy and Security > Site Settings > Pop-ups and redirects. Either toggle the Blocked option, or add [*.]mapnwea.org to the Allow list.
  • Firefox (Mac OS X): From the menu, select Firefox > Preferences > Content. Clear the Block pop-up windows checkbox.
  • Safari:
    • Safari 11: From the Safari menu, select Preferences, then the Security tab. Clear the Block pop-up windows check box.
    • Safari 12: Right-click in the address bar and select Settings For This Website. Change the Pop-up Windows selection to Allow.
    • iPad: Settings > Safari > Block Pop-ups. If the slider is green, turn it off by swiping to the left.
