Drag & Dropping attachments opens the files in the browser instead of attaching it to the chat

Title basically explains it.

I cannot add any attachments to the chat by dragging it, it just opens in the browser. Before 23/08 I could still drag and drop attachments but after a new update it is no more possible.

    Should be resolved now

      It is kind of resolved, as in it does upload but always on the second try. When I drag and drop for the first time it still opens every file in the browser, but afterwards if I try to drop the same files I selected again, then it does upload them.

        You may need to clear your browser cache to make sure the fix is used

          Unfortunately this does not work. It currently works about 30% of the time, the rest of the time the files are still being opened in the browser.

            What browser, OS and file type are you experiencing this with? I have not been able to reproduce this behaviour

            • Beige Cascade

              Chrome, windows 11.

              This is the case for .log, .md and .cs files.

              Refreshing browser cache (CTRL + F5) sometimes makes the drag and drop work on the first try

              I am however using t3 chat with the PWA feature from chrome. Whereby t3chat becomes a desktop app.

                I am wondering if this is something weird about the implementation of PWAs that chrome has. Will look into this more. Do you see the same bevahior when not using as a PWA?

    Note: this only happens for scripts files like .cs .py .c etc and not with .md or .txt files
