      Hello all,

      Happy New year to you all. My Cloudron instance has been humming away nicely so no questions from me. Til now. 🙂

      I have a question question/possibly request.

      Objective
      Revert app data directory from external volume, back to default.

      Steps

      1. go to app page
      2. go to storage heading in app page
      3. in Data Directory section, in drop down change from the current external volume to default.
      4. click move data
      5. click save

      Expected behaviour
      Cloudron:

      • moves app data directory from previous external volume
      • in UI, deletes reference to volume name and mount point in Volumes section

      Actual behaviour
      Cloudron:

      • moves app data directory from previous external volume
      • reference to volume name and mount point in Volumes section still present

      Actual behaviour successfully achieves my objective. To confirm - in command line the data directories are deleted.

      Questions
      Should Cloudron delete the references in the Volumes section if it's not being used anywhere else? For "house keeping"?

      Right now, I assume I can delete the reference since it's not being used?

      Thanks.

        Another way might be to clone the app to another subdomain or do the shuffle by changing the original name first so the destination clone is the desired one.

          That seems like more work than necessary. Also assumes the existence of/want for another subdomain, no?

          or do the shuffle by changing the original name first so the destination clone is the desired one.

          I don't follow. I expected the GUI to show what was in the commandline - that the data directories are deleted.

            Can you post a screenshot of this? Are you referring to the Volumes view i.e the view where you add/remove volumes ? FWIW, what you said in Expected behaviour section is what is supposed to happen. I checked quickly and it does happen that way but not clear what you mean by Volumes section still present.
