Error: ⚠️Imgur upload failed, check dev console

[reggybsr]

I did everything I needed to do to get the plugin working, but the error still pops up. Why? (I'm not that big of a tech nerd so I don't understand that well, sorry)

[gavvvr]

@reggybsr, I am almost sure it fails for the same reason as #8 (check it out, it was reported today too. The problem can appear and disappear, so you can just try again and there are chances it will work)

If it still fails to you, could you please open the developer console (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+I) and report here the response code and headers of a failed request on a Network tab? The failed one is usually marked with red.

[reggybsr]

@gavvvr here's the headers and response code for one of the failed images. it says it failed to load the response code for every image, though.

[gavvvr]

@reggybsr I do not see response headers here. You probably show the POST request here. If the first one (CORS with http method OPTIONS) failed, the original request does even attempt to be executed. There are 4 failed requests on your screenshot while I guess you only pasted twice.

I just noticed you exposed your client_id. Even though it is not a secret or password I would recommend you to invalidate it and create a new one.
Btw the next time you face an issue with upload, you can check the API status at https://status.imgur.com/. It will probably show a global failure.

@ih8snow, thanks for adding error log. It confirms that all users face the same problem with CORS sometimes which simply disappears later. And I also faced it once.

What I could do is to fall back to default paste of a file to vault. Just released 1.2.0, closing the issue

I ran into this same issue today:

[thammawat-s]

I have similar error today.

[gavvvr]

@candideu @thammawat-s there was a global issue affecting everyone (#80). Update the plugin to 2.6.0 and follow new instructions to generate your own Client ID. The plugin should be fixed now. Leave a "thumbs up" reaction, if the update to 2.6.0 fixes your problems.

@gavvvr Thank you!
