I have updated to the beta version and things are a bit messed up on the dashboard. containers are not displaying in the correct folders, everything looks fine on the docker tab

So the docker tab looks ok for you as well ? The dasboard is expected to be nessed at this point, as I was trying to fix the docker tab first and than move the fix around

Hello..great tool.

Feature request: Folder groups for plugins?

This may sound really dumb, but I can't get this to work


I create a folder.

There is no way to choose what docker apps go into the folder.

When I edit the folder it shows all the docker containers but there is no toggle box or anything.

I only have an empty folder.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin, and now i have buttons on the far right

I have an issue when I click the WebUI it takes to me a white page about:blank#blocked when inspecting it has this value http://:32400/web meaning that the IP is missing.

This is only happening when I click the icon inside the folderview2. if I click it outside it it works as intended

It is known about and already mentioned.

There’s a beta version you can use in the mean time. Read this thread, you’ll find details.

I am using the current beta version of folder.view on Unraid 7.1.3. I noticed that the “Autotart” function does not work properly.

If I select a few dockers, it automatically resets itself. However, the dockers still seem to start.

Is this already known or do I have another error? Do you need any details from me?

I'm using the beta as well on 7.1.3 and Autostart works for me. No issues.

Okay, maybe someone else is facing this issue. Its working in general, but the display is not correct - some kind of reset.

I have the same problem.

Are containers that are created via unraid docker compose supposed to be able to be grouped into folders? I have 1 container that I made via unraid docker compose and I assigned it to a folder and the folder shows the green button that it’s in that group but the container isn’t actually grouped.

I'm on the Beta with the same issue. My compose plugin containers are not able to be added to folders, this did work in the previous version from CA store.

So I ended up getting this to work in a hacky way. I manually created an xml template in “/boot/config/plugins/dockerMan/templates-user” for any containers that I created via docker compose.

Then in docker I selected “add container” and selected the template for my docker compose that I just created in the templates-user folder. I hit apply and it failed as it should, after it failed it forced dockerman to recognize the xml template as belonging to an active container.

Once I went back into docker my container created via docker compose is now properly group with my other containers.

Was able to record the behaviour on my Mac. As you can see the autostart are reset immediately after refreshing the page.

Already tried to reinstall, but no success. Any advice?

Odd. I'm on 7.1.4 also running the beta plugin and I don't have that issue.

Maybe @VladoPortos can take a deep dive into this, if it is a bug just from my side?

About the autostart feature, I think it might be related to a race condition on the unraid-autostart config file.

I have a more detailed bug report here: https://forums.unraid.net/bug-reports/stable-releases/unraid-autostart-file-edit-race-condition-r3964/

Apparently unraid guys don't want to implement a lock on their side, so folder view plugin maybe need to add a little delay in between the underlying toggling commands instead of executing them all at once. One workaround right now is to expand the folder and manually click on unraid's native autostart toggles.

Hi everyone,
first of all, a huge thank you to @VladoPortos for continuing the development of folder.view2!

I just upgraded to Unraid 7 and thought I'd give the new folder.view2 version a try. I created some folders and grouped my Docker containers and it's working great so far.

However, I can't figure out how to change the order of the folders in folder.view2.
For example, I would like my "Databases" folder to be displayed at the top. I guess it's probably something simple, but I couldn't find any option for reordering folders.

I searched the forum, including this thread
…but didn’t find an answer.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

In the Dockers tab, top row, just to the left of the search icon is a green lock.

Click it and on the left you will see that you can drag and reorder the folders.

I recently did an update to 7.1.4 and now my docker containers are acting up in various ways. Sometimes when I click the WebUI link, it opens up a blank Chrome window with the following URL: about:blank#blocked

And other times, I clock on the WebUI link, and I get this pop-up which I've never seeing before warning me about an external link. However, when I clock the "OK" button, nothing happens, it's just broken.

I can't seem to find a rhyme or reason why these errors are happening. It happens in Chrome and Firefox and I've tried on two on different computers.

I seems to be related to the FolderView2 plugin since the problem doesn't happen if I disable the FolderView2 Plugin.

Hi, Does anyone know why Unraid STACK containers dont want to go into the FOLDERs and maybe how to force them to do that?

Folder that has STACK containers show empty while regular "single" containers from app-store play nice.

It may be a bug but you can get around it by creating an xml template of your composes in this folder “/boot/config/plugins/dockerMan/templates-user”. Then just delete your compose and create the container again from your template.

Just give ChatGPT an xml template for a container that already exists and give it your docker compose and tell it to create the template, unless you are comfortable creating your own xml template.

I recently installed the docker compose manager plug-in, but it makes all my folders disappear from the Docker screen, however, they appear and function on the Dashboard. I removed the docker compose plug-in and now my folders are back to normal. Anyone run into that issue and find a fix?
