hint: false has lost it's effect in v0.34.0

[rudissaar]

I'm using dist/autocomplete.jquery.min.js and since v0.34.0 hint: false is not working anymore.

I tried what happens if I use v0.33.0 instead and found out it indeed works in previous release, it might be a bug.

No code regarding to that changed between v0.33.0 and v0.34.0, this is really weird. Are you sure the version is the only variant you used while testing? Could you make a sandbox with working & non-working version?

There's a template here: https://codesandbox.io/s/github/algolia/create-instantsearch-app/tree/templates/autocomplete.js

Maybe I miss understood what hint is in autocomplete.js, but my problem really is I get native autocomplete of my previous searches with latest version, but not with previous one, I inspected and it seems by using v0.33.0 input element will have a attribute autocomplete="off",
but by using using v0.34.0 I get: autocomplete="nope"

ah, hint is not what this is for, hint is used for background text as a placeholder and is unrelated to the behaviour you described. What you are seeing is more of a bug, which behaviour we reverted in #273 and will be back to what the behaviour was in 0.33 in the next version.

Feel free to close this issue then, thanks.

Feel free to continue using 0.33 until 0.35 is released :)
