Always promting to download invoice

Self-Hosted | v4/Legacy
1

Hi,

I am running a self hosted Invoice Ninja, although the same happens on the Ninja demo site. Every time I make a change to any fields when creating or modifying an invoice I am prompted to download the PDF. This is occurring in Firefox 47. It is very distracting as I have to cancel switch to another dialog to cancel the download for every field I navigate to.

I have tried turning off the preview and tried running Firefox in Safe mode with no change.

Can anyone offer some help?

cheers,

Dan

Some of the suggestion under “If PDF files are downloaded instead of displayed…” may help

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them

Otherwise, you can force the app to use an alternate PDF renderer by loading the following URL:

your_site.com/force_inline_pdf

thanks for the answers

Didn’t have any luck with the Mozilla solution, but the force inline seems to work.

Do I need to use that URL every time or is it now solved just from accessing it once?

The setting will be remembered for your user account.
