I am trying to build an app that simply opens webview and goes to my forum page on my website, but I can not figure out why I can't upload photos. I don't think permissions is the issue since I set the app to request permissions on open (although you have to open the app twice to get both prompts for camera and read/write permissions) When I click upload photo nothing at all happens. The website works perfectly fine in a normal web browser app. The Website was made with Wix.

I've read what feels like a hundred answers to similar questions, and either none of the work, they're outdated, or I don't understand any of them. I've read things saying it's something to do with Java alerts or to use WebChromeClient but my biggest issue is I don't really know what the problem truly is to try to find the answer or how to actually code a solution.

I am going to put all my code here, but I don't just want the answer to how to fix it, I want to know why it isn't working, and how I can figure out how to fix issues like these in the future on my own.
