File Component Not Attaching Uploads

Are these both still issues in v5.8 of Skuid? I’m in the same boat of trying both ways of enabling an attachment to a record created and not getting anywhere (I don’t even get the name of file being uploaded shown in the box that appears in the screenshot originally submitted).

I don’t see any mention of cloning the VF pages in the tutorials so hoping this is fixed…and wondering why it isn’t working for me.
