Errors

Upload is unavailable

The upload page has no usable tabs because Desktop, Remote URL, and Copy mods are all off.

Upload is unavailable

The member upload page shows this banner when no upload source tab is left — Files, Remote URL, and Copy are all disabled by site mods.

Why this happens

visibleTabs.length === 0: Desktop uploader (toggle.m_z), Remote URL upload, and Copy from public are all off. This is a UI empty state, not an API 503. Upload maintenance is a different message (“Uploads are temporarily under maintenance…”).

Diagnose and fix

1. Settings → Mods — enable at least one of: Desktop uploader, Remote URL upload, Copy from public.

2. Refresh /upload after saving.

3. Tier blocks (uploads off, remote blocked, copy blocked) can empty the useful options even when a mod is on — check Users & limits too.

4. If the whole site is in upload maintenance, clear that toggle instead.
