Within a particular directory, I cannot save or delete files. In all other directories, I'm able to do so. I don't know how to fix this. I need this directory for my django projects templates. I was able to delete the whole parents folder, which deleted the directory that I have been having trouble saving/deleting files. I then recreated the directory and I'm still having this issue. Not sure what going on

Files are not saving or deleting within specific directory
it says "There was an error saving." when I try to save, even when the file has nothing in it
this is the path that is giving me trouble " /home/cartealb/django_projects/adlist/ads/templates/ads/"
There is nothing that I can see about that directory that would prevent you from writing to it. Have you tried refreshing the page that you're editing in?

Yes I've tried to refresh and I've even deleted the directory and recreated it, but it still is having that issue
There is nothing to prevent the save, so I suspect something with your browser. Could you try disabling extensions and trying to save to the directory then?
It won't let me delete within the specific directory either. But saving or deleting files works in any other directory
It works in safari after trying it. This is strange because I have been using chrome on this site for a while and its strange that it's only for the specified directory. Thank you for your help!
It is only obstructing your progress in that particular directory because your ad-blocker might be active.
Yes, I think you're right -- @glenn must have missed the /ads in the URL, and it's very likely that an ad-blocker might decide to block requests to a URL like that.
Yes, I was having the same issue and that happens because of the name of the directory (in this case is named 'ads') so, when trying to do any action inside this folder will be blocked by an ad-blocker, so you have to desable it while doing changes in any folder named 'ads'.
ThankYou, i was having the same problem here
You need to make an exception in your ad blocker.
It isn't working for me. What do I do? my ad blocker is turned off and yet still the same problem
hi there, what file are you trying to save (eg: what is the size), where are you trying to save it (ie. the file path), and have you tried reloading? (ie. are you logged in)
