Attachment option is missing - New Milestone Version

[8d1991f0]

Since the new Milestones interface was released early July (relevant announcement) the option to attach files in milestones was removed.

The workaround is to attach the necessary files in a separate message or include GoogleDrive/Dropbox/etc links in the description. But it's obvious that this is inefficient (we create around 50 milestones per month which all need an attachment) and secondly, it doesn't "bind" these attachments as part of the requested milestone.

Please include this option back to the new version.

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing! Wow....this change was a major, major mistake and short-sighted change implemented by your team. Very disappointed. Put it back please!!

Try to change your browser.

Thank you, Hasan, but it's a matter of the new interface not a matter of changing browser (I tried both Chrome and Firefox)

The problem is not the browser. The problem is the latest 'improvement' was the opposite. Why would Upwork developers remove an important and very efficient method of sharing files for Upworkers to work on and make it a cumbersome two-step disjointed process. (Rhetorical. No doubt it was a cost saving exercise at the expense of the users.)
