Not sure if it is only an issue for me.

I can click the upload image icon when going to make a new comment on a post and the upload image overlay properly appears.

If I click to reply to an existing comment and then click the upload image icon, nothing happens.

I need to click to make a new comment, upload an image, cut the embed text and cancel making the new comment, then paste the embed text into my reply to an existing comment.

Example in comment below.

___ EDIT: The upload image button doesn't work for me only when trying to upload an image in a reply to a comment inside of a comment thread, not when trying to reply to a comment while viewing the post in its entirety.

I can't reproduce this issue.

Can you tell me what your browser's version and what does its console (developer section) say when you click the blue upload image icon?

I clicked 'link' in your reply from my inbox to be taken to this comment chain so the page I am on is not the full post, but just this comment chain. https://poal.co/s/Poaldev/761005/ef08f11d-4899-475a-983d-b99bb119f326#cmnts

Clicking the upload image button on this reply I am making causes the icon to receive a border, so it is registering it as being clicked, but the upload overlay does not display.

Clicking the upload image button displays this in console: Old Waterfox (Waterfox Classic 2022.11) `TypeError: document.getElementById(...) is null

Old Ungoogled Chrome (Chromium Version 107.0.5304.122) Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'value') at main.b4b6f1402e58f565b424.js?v=2.824:18:569517 at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> (main.b4b6f1402e58f565b424.js?v=2.824:1:7798) (anonymous) @ main.b4b6f1402e58f565b424.js?v=2.824:18 (anonymous) @ main.b4b6f1402e58f565b424.js?v=2.824:1 !

I thought it was unlikely a bug due to my using outdated browsers as the image upload works in other areas of poal for me, just not within a comment chain. If my insisting on using older browsers is the cause, I should refrain from reporting more bugs in the future so as to not waste your time on bugs that are likely only on my end.

Found the culprit. Fixing it now.
