fileupload Error

[iamwe]

Hello,
I am having problem with the Fileupload element.
Sometimes it appears and sometimes it does not appear.

Is there any solution, or is anyone else having a problem with this?

Joomla: 3.9.26
PHP Version 7.3.27
PHP Built On Linux

What do you mean with "it appears"?
Element access settings?
Logged-in/out?
Error messages?
JS errors in your browser console?
Frontend?
Backend?
Which Jooma template? (Did you try the standard Protostar?)

Hello tro,
On the frontend-form, the file-upload plugin only displays sometimes, even with error reporting = development, Debug System - yes, Development Mode = Yes
Access for the plugin is set to = public.

So what doesn't display? Did you check your page source with your browser console if it's "there" but maybe hidden via CSS or covered by the following element?
Is it the same in front- and backend?
Which Joomla template?
Which Fabrik form template?

Hello Troester,
The Fileupload element can be viewed on the backend.
It cannot be viewed with prostar nor my T4-bootstrap templates.
The Fabrik form template was not changed, it is default.

Here is a listing of all my template CSS changes for fabrik - Please let me know if one could be affecting the element:

/* FABRIKAR */
/*Administration Credit*/
pre {
background-color: #f8f9fa;
border-radius: 8px;
}
/*Fabrik form view*/
label.fabrikLabel.control-label {
margin-bottom: 0.00rem;
}
/* padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 5px;*/
/*space between fabrik icons for filters */
a.advanced-search-link {
padding-left: 10px;
}
/*Fabrik Filter tools header -- padding doesnt work
.nav li {
padding-left: 8px;
}
*/
.fabrikButtonsContainer li {
margin-right: 30px;
}
.fabrikButtonsContainer li a {
padding-top: 8px;
padding-bottom: 8px;
margin-top: 2px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
}
.fabrikButtonsContainer li a i {
margin-right: .25em;
}
.fabrikButtonsContainer ul.dropdown-menu.show >li > a {
display: block;
padding: 3px 20px;
clear: both;
font-weight: normal;
line-height: 18px;
color: #333;
white-space: nowrap;
}

Still not clear what's the problem:
Your screenshot with element inspection is showing the element.

Hello,
I have retested the system. Apparently it is the Fabrik Form Module, that does not display the fileupload element.

The problem is, that sometime the "Add File" to upload the document appears -- then sometimes it does not appear. Ihave to select reload the page a hundred times to have the "Add File" appear.

I can't replicate.

Did you check your page source with your browser console if it's "there" but maybe hidden via CSS or covered by the following element?

Is it working in a standard form (menu item, list add/edit...)?
Module settings?
JS errors?
