- The issue isn't present for logged-in users viewing a public page.
- File links within rich text are not affected. If highly important files are currently not displaying, they could be added as rich text links while we work to resolve the issue.

Foxbright has received notice from Microsoft (Azure) regarding urgent maintenance for their data centers. This unscheduled maintenance will occur beginning at 7pm CDT/8pm EST. Websites may restart or experience brief outages beginning at 8pm EST or later. We recommend avoiding website updates this evening to prevent lost work. From Azure: "Due to a critical hotfix or urgent update, (Azure) App Service was not able to provide an advanced notification." These updates will not affect self-hosted websites.

Important: Some clients are experiencing an error viewing or uploading files directly from the control panel files area. The bug is fixed and is ready to be deployed via upgrade. Foxbright plans to begin upgrading impacted websites starting at 3PM today which will automatically log out active users and website service may briefly be disrupted. If you encounter the error, you may hit the back button or otherwise navigate back to the control panel. Contact support if you'd prefer to be upgraded ASAP or another requested time.
Please note: The issue does not affect the public accessing linked files from pages. Users may upload or link to existing files through the editor. Only the dedicated /admin/files/ area within the control panel is affected.
