Feature Request: Per-Container Update Checks and Default Folder for New Containers

Could we get an option to enable or disable update checks for individual containers instead of managing them globally?

Additionally, it would be great to have the ability to set a default folder for newly installed containers.

Currently, newly installed containers stack at the top of the list without being assigned to any folder. It would be useful to designate a default "Temp" or "Unsorted" folder where all new containers are automatically placed.

This would keep the main container list organized while allowing users to move containers into their preferred folders later.

Both features would improve flexibility and make container management much cleaner.

Sorry I don’t understand your first feature request.

Do you want update checks added to Folderview? I’m going to need you to elaborate further.

Also, your second request is already possible.

Catch-all folders — a folder whose regex is ^ collects every container not assigned to or matched by another folder; explicit assignments always beat regex captures

This is the first report I’ve had about any issues.

If you want me to figure out if it’s a folderview3 issue or something else you’ve done I’m going to need your diagnostic/debug. Can you generate one and PM it to me.

It aint an issue with your plugin. turned out, somehow something on my system decided to prune all unused images. Had to repull all images one by one ... sorry for disturbing ya

Not a problem! Glad you got it sorted

I apologize if this has already been answered. I did some searching but couldn't find anything. Is there a way to hide the Started/Stopped text and display only the Play/Stop icon in the Docker page on all containers?

Update:
I was able to hide the Started/Stopped text by adding custom Docker CSS:

#docker_list td.state, 
#docker_containers .state {
    font-size: 0 !important;
    color: transparent !important;
}

Preview settings, change it to Only Icon and you can select to see container status from the next drop down.

It'll come out like this

As you can see it also removes the container name, if that's the minimalist look you're going for.

Uploading Attachment...Yea, I did try that, but i actually wanted to keep the container names, since I have quite a few 3rd party containers that do not have Icons, so that would not work for my needs.
For Example:
Would look like this using that config:

Oh I see. I think the custom CSS path you’ve taken to achieve that is really good and that’s the point of having that available to people.

If you find it buggy for whatever reason let me know and I’ll see if there’s a tidy way to incorporate that option as a setting.

I’m just trying to avoid more and more toggles and settings and drop down menus.

For those updating to Unraid 7.4 I have noticed that the advanced preview has been messed up a little. It still works but it is no longer nicely organised.

I'll get this patched this week.

If you notice anything else please let me know!
