The paperclip attachment button isn't working on the forum.

Attachment button in these posts has not worked for some time now. Any hints on why that is or solutions to fix? Or has that button been deactivated? Thanks!

Hmmmm.....wonder when did that system changed. Also curious why no one from Dropbox has mentioned the new paperclip-attachment limits or camera-image thing when I was trying to share attachments during folder-list issue a few weeks ago.

All good - I'll just do the paste thing for now.

If only Dropbox would address the awful photo-collage folder thumbnails and allow users to choose the plain blue folders for folder thumbnails. I'm probably going to open a new comment on that since it has closed my prior one, which is still getting comments and replies even after a very long time.

    Thank you for follow up.

    FYI I note that this reply does not even have the paperclip-attachment button. Has it just been removed, or am I missing something?

    I'm seeing it normally at the moment amcoffice - could you clear your browser's cache and/or try another browser?

    If the button is still missing, please send us a screenshot so that we can have a visual too.

    Yep, it's gone (after deleting cache at checking on other browsers). See below
