Cloudron Forum

I managed to fix that. Will likely only be part of the next patch release though.

@nebulon Great guys! You're doing amazing !!!

This is fixed with https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/commit/fe1c483b7819404d4531fd34323bc2fc18534b85 now

@robi Installing apps from the store en masse can't be common. I think rn it's flow is best for an average user, but it could be a little more mobile app store like with an "installing" progress bar while you discover other apps, and then it pops up with "installed, click to open" or something via Notifications. I could see it, but again - installing apps isn't common enough I don't think to worry about this since installing is a one-time task.

But I'm glad you brought it up because it would add a bit of polish to have a more "app store" feel to it. Still allowing app discovery while an app's installing. I think Cloudron should be able to do that one day even if it doesn't feel like a priority rn.

@girish full page refresh yeah but the clear-all should have done that ;-/

How are we off by one?

I took a quick look at that some time ago, but it wasn't that trivial for me at least unless I would rewrite parts of the element table management around sorting. Happy to accept any patches there of course.

On mouseover, you already have the URI popup at the top, so on a long description you could have that popup on the flip side on the bottom.

@marcusquinn said in Dashboard: Customize buttons on the sides of apps:

How about a Grid view of My Apps for users and a List view for Admins with more room for shortcut icons?

I feel like this deserves it's own feature request thread.

I like it as it mirrors fairly standard desktop file manager options to swap between icon and list views. And list view could display lots more details like in file browsers too.

@robi I don't touch dashboard code. I wouldn't mind doing a PR for the Wordpress (Developer) project to add this but to be applicable to all users dashboard code would be needed since "admin urls" are technically changeable.

I don't think @girish should accept anything less than me doing a PR for making the fields customizable. And...okay, now that I've thought about it, if Girish isn't against the PR for the dashboard change, then I'm down to code it.

@nebulon woohoo! Thank you

Since @girish has setup the ci pipeline in Gitlab for our docs to push into a surfer instance, such changes are so easy now!

So https://docs.cloudron.io/custom-apps/manifest/#configurepath is up.

@girish There's was a lot of times I didn't want to uninstall to re-install (just re-start with some box changes), but when "restarting" them I had to wait for them to finally "Not Respond" at certain points to restart my test of it connecting apps. Obviously because I was working in box out of necessity, my specific situation was a little weird. 😅

@nebulon nice work, it will do!

Thank you kindly.

I also experienced this and I am v happy it's fixed. You guys are the best!

I upvoted. I agree the click targets could be a little more intuitive. Maybe even customizable (why I made my other post).

The file manager is in its early state UI wise. I also have further ideas how to improve that, at the moment we focus on other areas like apps for a bit. But let those ideas be discussed I'm the forum and I will pick them up later.

Best to break up in individual feature requests though.

Good observation! I have fixed the text now.

I'm with @nebulon, I see this as difficult to support, harder to code for - and more user friction. I usually never support more user friction unless it's dire. I think configuring after installation is more than acceptable. It's not like we can't write scripts using their API to macro your suggestion too, but I digress. 😂
