I'm using 1.5.4 and in conversations is not possible drag & drop files IF the redactor box is not active:

I can not reproduce this issue here, I've checked the bug fixes in the new releases but I can not find anything related. probably is something that has been fixed but is not in the list? @XenForoDevelopers
 
It's not something I recall, either.

I would be very surprised if it was specific to 1.5.4. Are you able to upgrade to see if the issue goes away in .5/6/7?

Aside from that I would suggest trying it in an unedited default style and all add-ons disabled (first time I've seen an icon font used inside the editor placeholder so could that be related?)

Hello Chris. whoops, you're right Sir. that's the problem. I'm using simply CSS to put those icons there:
Code:
.redactor_box .placeholder span:after {
    content: "\00a0""\f0c6""\00a0""\f0c5""\00a0""\f255""\00a0";
    font-family: FontAwesome;
    font-size: 22px;
    color: #B7B7B7;
    line-height: 30px;
}
Without that custom code it works perfectly again. the weird thing is that the problem is only in conversations.
in threads everything works perfectly. o_O

To my own references and FWIW, this code solve the issue:
Code:
.redactor_box .draftNotice, .redactor_box .placeholder:after {
    content: "\00a0""\f0c6""\00a0""\f0c5""\00a0""\f255""\00a0";
    font-family: FontAwesome;
    font-size: 22px;
    color: #B7B7B7;
    vertical-align: -12px;
}
.redactor_box .placeholder span {
    position: relative!important;
}
it seems the problem was the span on the first code.
