September 28, 20232 yr I was able to set this up and have it working behind my reverse proxy (e.g., https://filebrowser.mydomain.com). If I use the browser and go to the URL, I'm able to log in and upload / download files. If I wanted to use the FileBrowserGO iOS app though is there a way to add it as a remote location that way Photos can be uploaded / synced from my phone without having to use Safari (or a browser)? Or similarly, if I wanted to directly map this on my Macbook, is there a way to do that without having to use a browser? Edited September 28, 20232 yr by Ezro

Ty for the info! I completely misunderstood this. I'll look into webdav for accessing / syncing my unRAID share via a public (reverse proxied) URL
September 29, 20232 yr @alturismo Do you know if it's possible to allow public access to the FileBrowser? Right now I have most of my app access managed via nginx and it'd be nice to have this do the same

November 1, 20232 yr Hey everyone! Confused about the custom branding thing. Should I be able to change the file icon right above the login username field and should I be able to change the file icon to the upper-left of the page once logged in? If so, what files are those? I have /branding/ set as my branding folder. I have /branding/img/logo.svg and /branding/img/icons/favicon.ico My favicon works but if those other two logos are supposed to be changed, they aren't on my setup. Thank you!
January 23, 20242 yr Hi all, Is there a way to map a drive for file uploads? I see that when I upload a file it writes to my docker container. Thanks

Is the config the .js file here /mnt/cache/appdata/filebrowser/.filebrowser.json. When I open it in and editor I see this. I don't see a mapping for volume. { "port": 80, "baseURL": "", "address": "", "log": "stdout", "database": "/database.db", "root": "/srv" }
January 23, 20242 yr No, in the docker (unraid) try to map your disk (exemple disk number 5) : Data Path: /mnt/disk5/
February 3, 20242 yr Hello, I would like to add filebrowser to my fail2ban config, however filebrowser does not appear to log to a file. What would be the best way to do this? Edited February 3, 20242 yr by Quantumed
February 11, 20242 yr Is there a way to increase the size of the icon on the login page? Is this in browserconfig.xml? (Im a complete newb)

February 16, 20242 yr Hello, unfortunately I have forgotten the admin password for filebrowser. Is there a way to reset or change the password for the admin user? I would be pleased if you could suggest a solution.

February 17, 20242 yr Thank you for providing this unRaid template. I changed the following because I don't think the cloudflare zerotrust tunnel supports the unRaid external br0 IPs. I modified your template so that instead of using it's own IP, I changed it to bridge mode and and redirected the 80 to 8888 and then also configured the WEBUI port in advance. Everything works fine locally, but when I setup it up as another cloudflare zerotrust tunnel redirect I only get a black screen and it doesn't prompt me to login. Can you tell me what I'm missing to get it to work correctly. Thanks for helping

Thanks for helping maybe an issue with the base url? what does the browser colsole say any logs from file browser hint: works well with custom ips as well - better to use vlan
February 25, 20242 yr Hi and hope you can help me get your great template working 100%... I have everything working but when I am on a file it doesnt show me the Share button. I have the container accessible outside my LAN using a Cloudflare tunnel as a subdomain - but no luck... How can I get file sharing working? THANKS!

February 26, 20242 yr HI thanks for your reply. The only file I can see in appdata/filebrowser is database.db is the config file stored somewhere else?
February 27, 20242 yr Hi knexx666 I dont really know how I got it working but it now is! Cheers I did a fresh install and it showed the Share button for a bit and now it does not show again - weird... Did you have any clues where I can find the config file to check perm.share ? Edited February 27, 20242 yr by jonskin44
February 28, 20242 yr Hi knex666 I discovered the problem... If I have the setting to open files with one click turned on it disables the Share function. But when it is off I can share files / folders... Weird. I can use as is but would like to use single click opening - is there a simple fix to this? cheers
