Characters disappear when I type in search field on workflowy.com

Hi! I DM'd you on Twitter a moment ago about a glitch problem that I am currently experiencing when I use the search field in my account via http://workflowy.com .

I generally list my tasks with a date at the end that includes punctuations (such as "Visit SKV service center. | 2019.01.22"). By writing my tasks in this way, I can use the search field to search for a specific date and that way get a date-specific task list.

However, now when I enter the date with the punctuations, the character after each punctuation disappears (I have sent a video to you in the Twitter DM of what happens exactly). This forces me to type very slowly so that all characters are properly entered which is counterproductive. If I don't type slowly, I can get something along the lines of "2019.1.2" when I really want to type "2019.01.22" in the search field. I also noticed that this happens even when I type something without punctuation marks.

Do you know what this could be caused by? Note: this problem only arose a few weeks ago and occurs on all web browsers. I have been using Workflowy since 2011/2012 with no problems. Thank you in advance.

Browsers where this problem occurs: Mozilla, Chrome, Internet Explorer.
