Unable to add attachements from firefox

Post by shifters74 »

Hi Admin,

when clicking Add to add an attachment to a post - nothing happens - is there an issue?

Thanks

Hmm, on Ubuntu 22.04 and the same version of firefox, and clicking the add does nothing.

Rebooted PC etc etc and still the same.

I will try from windows and see if that helps

thanks

It works for me with 22.04 LTS, it brings up a file selector dialog. Not sure if it matters, but I run in Xorg mode due to a video bug with the new default thing.

Tried with chromium and it works fine. Must be something with my firefox. Not a fan of snaps!

Does anything that should bring up a file selector work?

Other apps fine but firefox no - even from the file menu. I have tried uninstalling and totally wiping firefox and doing a reinstall - still does not work.

I have had a few odd things happen with Ubuntu recently (its been upgraded from 18.04 to 20.04 then 22.04 over the years) so i may be looking at a reinstall at some point soon (a few days job unfortunately).
