Cannot upload SVG from Customizer

    I am using the latest 2.3.1 version (as of this date) and I’ve noticed that even though you can upload SVGs in the media library, you get a permission error while trying to upload anything from the Customizer (eg, from Site Identity). I have tried it with various default WP themes and also the GeneratePress theme. Another similar plugin that I used allowed me to do both.

    I am facing the same problem. Any suggestion? Thanks!

    I’m experiencing a similar issue. I use ACF for my custom fields, and when I create an image custom field, I’m unable to upload SVG images—they appear as non-selectable. To work around this, I have to manually upload the SVG to the media library first and then select it in the image field.

    I am also observing this issue. If I try to upload an SVG logo or favicon in the Customizer > Site Identity, it’s giving the file type error message.

    I can upload the same files directly in the Media Library no problem, and then select them from the Media Library in the Customizer and it works, but the direct upload in Customizer does not.
