    They were working for me a couple days ago but since yesterday its been very intermittent. I go into one thread and they are working and the next thread they aren't and it's that way the entire day. They were completely gone for me for a couple days but slowly started coming back but now they seem to be disappearing again. Images attachments are touch and go at best.

    And you are better for the adventure... the mystery, the wonder... when one never knows what to expect, one never grows bored.

    I laughed and coffee went out my nose.. My keyboard is not happy... laugh

    Oops... sorry about that... I sorta hope that you were drinking coffee at the time, because if you weren't, that could be a symptom of a very serious condition or in the very least a very entertaining party trick... and technically, depending on the volume at which one might be able to produce this mystery coffee, possibly a lucrative source of supplemental income... if this keeps happening, talk to a doctor or possibly a professional barista, depending on where you want to take this.

    Good luck and sorry about the keyboard.

  • damn this frustrating

    wanted to share a Carrara file and will have to do some complicated thing like ShareCG, Google Drive or DeviantArt Stash by looks

    cannot even upload it as a txt file, it's only 804KB FFS

    I can't even upload images either... it's weird though, when I go to the "An OT Thread for images" on page two of the Art Studio forum, I can see all the icons in both Safari and Firefox, but only after page one, which is missing the icons.

    Now that everything seems to be back to normal, I don't even want to upload anything. Please help!

    Don't worry. It will very soon be broken again, and then you will have an urgent irresistible need to upload something.

  • The icons are still missing for me.

  • ^Me too

  • Same problem for weeks. With Chrome. Firefox, Edge, etc. All forum icons are the same empty square.

    Nothing to do with a cache remain. Just stopped displaying the proper icons a while ago.

  • McGyverMcGyver Posts: 7,053

    Nothing is fixed here.

    No icons here and the notifications by mail are hit or miss. Mostly miss - today it was one mail and three other threads were there were new answers.

    I have to log in, click on the icon to the right on the blue bar (yes, adventurous ... hoping not to hit the big red button for self-destruction wink) and click on My notifications or My bookmarks.

    Randomly they reappear sometimes.

    For example I've got them on The Commons section but not in this thread or the mainpage.

    It matters little to me, but forum icons have been broken for a while, and they're mostly still broken. Ironically, as I post this, icons on this particular page are working. But they were broken on the preceding pages. And yes, store icons have been fine the whole time. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Aah you were so right. I have a batch of screenshots and whatnots waiting in line...and the buttons returned as I typed this. Is it a good omen?

    For what it's worth, the "connection not secure" icon has also been showing on most of these forum pages too, which might also explain why we haven't been able to upload.

    That's a good catch! I hadn't noticed that. On the Leave a Comment form page, the lock is working.

    I'm trying to do a bunch of testing to see check on various problems with the forums atm. Can someone please tag me? I want to see if I get a notification so we know if we need to add that to our report as well. I just did a ton of testing on images. The only way an image can be posted is if you use the embed option and it has to be hosted off-site. Attachments aren't working no matter what format you use. I tried almost all common image formats and none worked and also tested a couple of document formats. Attachments just seem to be broken, period.

    @frank0314 there you go;)

    The problem with all these tests is that the problems are intermittent. Your test results one minute might not be valid the next minute.

    My icons are back...for now. indecision

  • TorquinoxTorquinox Posts: 3,340

    I'm also seeing full forum icons.

  • Noah LGPNoah LGP Posts: 2,590

    I haven't been able to upload images using Safari in iOS for over four years (but Firefox works)...  but now nothing seems to allow me to upload anything, not on my MacBook, my PC or my iPad.

    I'll have to resort to detailed descriptions of what I wanted to upload from now on.

  • barbultbarbult Posts: 24,249

    Icons are working in Firefox on PC for now. I even uploaded an image a few hours ago.These capabilities have been coming and going for days. My fingers are crossed and hoping we have a true solution this time.

  • I have icons in Chrome for the moment. And I'm getting an occasional thread watch notification.

    Thanks, and no I didn't get your notification nor did I get one for the PM sent to me. I did report it yesterday though.

    Testing uploading. The icons are, for now, all back. It looks like the forum page again. (edit: Looks like it worked)
