Hi everyone. My GIF icon disappears anytime I set uploads to S3: enable s3 uploads. If I turn uploads to S3 off, the GIF icon reappears in the editor. I’d appreciate some help fixing this.

having this same issue, only it was working yesterday. I then added cdn+s3 uploads+cdn and it has stopped working. Everything else works properly, both cdn pulls work well. Using DO Spaces + Bunny CDN. Tried clearing both cdn pulls’ cache, didn’t matter, the GIF svg doesn’t load properly.

[image] mbs: clearing both cdn pulls’ cache, didn’t matter, the GIF svg doesn’t load properly I’ve got another site that’s doing something strange with svg on an S3 bucket. I haven’t figured out what’s going on, though.

The GIF text icon disappeared and after trying to delete and reinstall the component I’m getting this error. Error with icons-sprite: # Button works but the GIF sprite is not visible.

Hi, is there any solution to this? @Falco It’s weird to see that Meta has it’s GIF sprite in place. We are currently at 2.8.1 (stable) and yet to upgrade to 2.8.2, but the problem persists before that when we were at “latest”, around a month or so ago.

Just letting everyone know that if you revert this whole commit, the icon gets back in place in the editor. I now wonder why no more people report this bug and why isn’t it being reproduced here at meta? We’re going to update to v2.8.3 +2 this week and I will double check if it’s compatible with current state of GitHub - discourse/discourse-gifs · GitHub repository

Have you tried deleting the component and adding it again? maybe the old icon name is stuck somewhere. That commit you previously mentioned reverting only changed the name of the included icon, so it shouldn’t be something that relies on a certain Discourse version.

I just tried your advice, and that’s what I got at component page in admin (there was no such error before that): Error with icons-sprite: # Screenshot [Screenshot 2022-04-26 at 19.02.28@2x] I took a note of this error, and proceeded to save my API key and no, it doesn’t fix the issue with composer icon.

Are we the only one running into this problem? Anyone? For the past week, there were many changes introduced to main repo of this component by Discourse devs, but none of those solve the problems of: Missing GIF icon in composer Error of “Error with icons-sprite: # ”

We use S3 storage if it matters at all…

What’s interesting is that gif.svg in the component repository is totally blank itself:
