"Start from Template" — Continue button does nothing, no network request fired - v0

Hello guys, I'm having an issue with forking templates in v0. I can't fork any template on v0. The "Start from Template" dialog opens correctly, I tick "I trust this source", but clicking Continue does nothing at all — no navigation, no error toast, no visible feedback. The dropdown arrow next to the button is equally unresponsive.

Steps to reproduce

Open any template page, e.g. https://v0.app/templates/superdesign-design-vqoqDuffYbF

v0.app

Superdesign Design - Website Templates Templates - v0 by Vercel

Click "Open in v0"
In the "Start from Template" modal, check "I trust this source"
Click "Continue" (or the dropdown arrow next to it)

Expected: a new chat is created from the template. Actual: nothing happens. The modal stays open, no error is shown.

What I've already ruled out

No request is fired. With DevTools open on the Network tab, filtered to Fetch/XHR and cleared right before clicking, no request appears when I click Continue. The only traffic is Vercel telemetry (info, send-site, c.js?i=…&h=v0.app), all returning 200. So the failure is entirely client-side, before any API call.
The only error appears at click time. Clicking Continue produces an entry in the console reading exactly:
```
7c.js?i=0&v=3&[h=v0.app:1](https://h=v0.app:1)  Error
```
It cannot be expanded and carries no message, stack trace, or object payload — just the word Error. It originates from Vercel's own analytics bundle (c.js), not from application code, so I can't get any further detail from it client-side. Everything else in the console is unrelated link preload warnings for chat-static/_next/static/immutable/chunks/*.css.
Not an extension issue. Same behaviour in an incognito window with all extensions disabled.
Not a credits issue. My account shows 4.98 / 5.00 USD credits remaining.
Not template-specific. Reproduced on multiple templates, including ones with a working live preview and an "Open Original" button.
Regular chat works fine on the same account — only the template fork flow fails.

Environment

Browser: Chrome (latest), Windows
Plan: free
Reproducible: 100% of attempts, across sessions and templates

Question

Is forking templates gated behind a paid plan? If so, the UI gives no indication — the button renders as enabled and simply does nothing, which made this very hard to diagnose. If it isn't gated, this looks like a client-side bug in the modal's submit handler.

Happy to provide screenshots of the Network tab or a screen recording.
