Camera Uploads IOS 18 on iPad not working correctly

I have upgraded to iOS 18 on my iPad and updated the Dropbox app. I turned Camera Uploads on, with Upload from set to Camera Roll and Back up set to All Photos. Nothing is uploaded, even though my Camera Roll has over 16,000 photos.
Uploading manually is not an option, as there is no Select All function. In addition, manual upload only allows 400 photos at a time.
The new iOS 18 Photos app no longer has a folder named 'Camera Roll', so I'm wondering if that is the problem?
I logged out of the Dropbox app and back in, which then took me through Set Up your Dropbox. The Upload Photos option seemed like it would work if I chose Imports, but again there is no Select All option. So I went back to the Camera Uploads settings and turned Camera Roll off, and Recently Saved (under Smart Folders) on. Same thing, nothing uploads.
I'm stumped!
