Resizing volume is not available even when the droplet is powered off

The “Resize volume” menu item is greyed out.
Even if I power off the droplet, it is still greyed out. I remember I did resize this volume a few months ago using these instructions https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-increase-the-size-of-a-digitalocean-block-storage-volume. Anything changed?

First: Shutdown your droplet! Then, click with right button in “Resize volume” and go to “Inspect element” (in Safari, or equivalent in other browsers)… remove ‘class=“is-disabled”’, and the button changes to “available”… click and choose your new size!
This is still an issue
Great solution!
