I'm getting an error: The plugin folder.view.plg is not known to Community Applications and is possibly incompatible with your server

 

I can't seem to locate it in CA anymore. Has it been pulled?

Plug-in was abandoned and is now picked up by another developer. So it's currently in flux and not yet in CA.

If you want to manually install it on unRAID 7, then check the last pinned post. 

There's a new forum thread for the new plug-in.

Hello,

Can anyone provide me with some instructions on how to remove the old one?

It should show up in your list of plugins ( plugins tab) and you can remove it from there.

Thanks, I was trying to do  it from the apps tab.

I recently went to add some new docker containers to an existing folder by edit the folder. When the screen opens everything is blanked out and the functions don't seem available.

Steps: Click on folder > select Edit

See the attached screenshot for what appears. I have several folders and this is the case for all of them.

You're about 6 months late to the party. 😀

This plugin is deprecated/abandoned.

Look for Folder View 2 here on the forum.

Check out AlienTech42 YouTube videos. Search for the word "Folder" under the videos tab. This may be what you are looking for.

Ummmm...what? I wasn't looking for anything. Is this SPAM?

Spam?? What are you talking about. I was directing you to a YouTube channel which discusses the Folder View plugin. Did you even bothering looking into it before making these outrageous remarks. And here I was trying to help you out. Serves me right !!!!

HA! 🤣 Did you even bother reading my comment before pointing me to a video?

In my comment you replied to, what gave you the impression I was looking for more info that a video could help with? I was telling someone else that FolderView was abandoned and to head over to the FolderView 2 thread, and you told me to go search for "Folder" on AlienTech42's YouTube channel and it might be what I'm looking for. I wasn't looking for ANYTHING. I was helping someone else with a definitive answer.
Your comment was so out of context, that I thought it may have been a bot spamming with random YouTube channel suggestions.
Honestly, with your reply, I'm still not sure you aren't an AI bot.

@Mattaton Well I am not a bot. But, thanks for clearing that up for me. I obviously misread your post. Have a great day!

I can not see the actual containers to add to the folder. All of the existing folders are in the same state, none of the existing containers are there, and can not add new ones.

Is there any chance that we can fix the autostart selection for the FolderView in Docker?

It has always been buggy: https://youtu.be/pRY9AEqXo_Q

the add folder page looks a mess on the latest version 7.2.3, see attached. You can ignore the footer half way across that's a different issue with unriad not playing nice with edge's full page capture feature,
