Hello!  
I’m a bit confused on what setting I might’ve changed to cause this. I set up sso last night which ended up working pretty nicely, props to that : ) I signed someone up and they said they weren’t able to upload their avatar, I tried it myself and low and behold there’s no option to upload avatar anymore. Allow uploaded user avatars is on and sso overrides avatar is off. Any idea?

It’s a known bug which @zogstrip fixed (very) recently:

> Yeah, totally my fault. I’m fixing it and improving our test suite to not break again wink EDIT: update to latest and it’ll be fixed strawberry[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/35a79a70c3f1ddffacb5b120dbfd1e91b661e9b1](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/35a79a70c3f1ddffacb5b120dbfd1e91b661e9b1)

(Maybe this commit should also go into the beta branch?)

Ok, just backported it to the `beta` branch. You can update to get the fix. Sorry about that 😳
