Jirafeau and updating f.php

[skeats]

Hello,

How can we edit the f.php file as I need to get rid of the words "self-destruct" and change it to "delete"? I have tried and it is telling me it is a ready-only file. I need to be able to unlock this, but even putting the following command to open the file: "sudo nano f.php" it is still opening a read-only file. Any way you can help with this would be amazing.

Thanks!

I have tested the custom.php and tried mirroring the change in there and it did not take at all. This is why I need into the f.php file

That won't be possible. The read only filesystem is a core bit of Cloudron's design and how they are able to make everything Just Work.

But I think perhaps @Staff need to look at the updated packages for Jirafeau as I'm pretty sure I had some customisations that worked previously and are now gone.

Hopefully the process described in https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/jirafeau/#customization can be made to work again...

As @jdaviescoates mentioned, this f.php is really part of the app's code and not something which can be customized directly in code on Cloudron. One reason for this on Cloudron is, that if we allow to edit code files, which are part of an app release, there is no way for us to update the app later without breaking or essentially reverting the customization.

Since this is a php app, maybe you can use the lamp app though to run it, but then you have to manually manage updating the php files of course.
