Hi, just a short question.

couldn’t find any information either in the community or on youtube.

Has the “advanced file upload” element lost its drag and drop functionality? Or am I doing something wrong?

Hey,  
For me it’s working fine, try to upload it through the layout and check other containers maybe the specific component can’t receive the element.

thank you! Tested it on the a newly created page and it worked. There’s something wrong with my current page structure then. Will try to figure it out.
