  • Hello, I know that a file upload would be too risky... But could the file editor be in a modal and use ajax? just so we don't need to get redirected out of the folder page it would make the editing of files better...

    PS: I will try making a greasemonkey script for myself, would like to know if it is okay if I submit it here in the forum afterwards?

    Thank you for your time, and effort, you guys rock! <3

  • It's not wrong, it's just a bit annoying /frustrating/tedious, it takes too long to go trough each configuration file.

    The page template already has a modal (it's used when you launch the server, to accept the terms and conditions), I believe it wouldn't take much to make so the editor runs inside a similar modal, and would improve the overall user experience.

    It could even be in an iframe, if there's some php magic going on the back that you don't want to mess with (been there, done that :D)


    Thank you for your patience :saint:

    Moving it to a modal doesn't make it really faster. The time consuming part is loading and saving the file from our storage system.

    Oh, I didn't know we had that. (irony)
