Additional comments

It seems as if it was only one particular folder and its subfolder. It was at the bottom of the left panel, so I dragged it to the middle of the menu and it functioned fine. The other folders worked normally.

Hmm, can’t seem to repro both on Firefox and Chrome. I tried making the folder the last item, didn’t work either.

Might be some edge case. Please let us know if you happen to find out under which circumstances this appear!

I personally ran into it once too, but upon refreshing it disappeared. Couldn’t consistently repro the issue.

Will do, thanks Erica!
