“Attach a file” just stopped working for me, anyone else?

I click on the link and nothing happens.

Macintosh system 10 chrome browser

Hi all. Thanks, @BillRussell. Can a few others of you test it and let me know? It appears to be working on my phone. I will then let vanilla know.

Not working for me either. Also all the buttons at the top of the comment box are “B”'s.  
I am using Firefox on Windows 10.

I can’t preview, either. It just deletes my post.  
Windows 7, Internet Explorer.

cdaquila: did you do an upgrade or mod recently? I also noticed that preview doesn’t work either.

and the "B"s are there for me also.

and the edit box is misshapen, very wide.

New development: I can’t even get the login box to open on a desktop, so I can’t test the B thing or the box. I can only get through on the mobile version.

Attach a file link is now " javascript:void(0); " , which is why it’s not working.

I also have the all B’s thing.

@cdaquila-Some of the people asking questions may not be returning because I can’t log in by the login box at the top of the home page. I have to use the sign in feature at the bottom of a thread.

I never logoff, so logon is not a problem.
