Always put folders at the top AND order them alphabetically.
-
If you visit https://files.uniteddiversity.coop the folders are not at the top as one would expect.
And even if you click on Name to reorder it is impossible to have folders at the top where they should be AND to have them ordered alphabetically.
Basically it should function exactly like all desktop file browsers I've ever used function.

I think @nebulon made a fix for the File Browser to be this way. I guess he needs to make the same change to surfer.
-
@girish yes, exactly. I've not actually played with the file browser yet (
actually, how do I find it?ah, worked out it's in the console tab via https://blog.cloudron.io/cloudron-5-4-released/), but I remember reading exactly that on here somewhere too.

@jdaviescoates In case you are wondering (or not), the main advantage of the File Browser over the Console is that one doesn't need the app to be running to access the files. The Console relies on the container being active/running whereas the File Browser accesses the filesystem directly. This is useful if you messed up some config file and the app won't start...

@girish thanks, I wasn't wondering, but good to know
It's also just a lot more user friendly for people like me who aren't sysadmins and don't often work in the command line (although having been running Linux since before Ubuntu existed I'm relatively comfortable in a terminal, just still only really use it when I have to).

Turns out there is already an issue for this - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/surfer/-/issues/13 (which links back to a post from you
). I think @nebulon will easily get this fixed when he is back.

@girish well, do want to still be able to order ascending / descending, but folders should just always be at the top.
