elFinder. What?

Post by bidmead »

There seems to be no mention in this forum of the elFinder app that was recently added to TOS 5. This app has been around for a long time, so I would have expected to find plenty of information on the Web about what it is for and how to use it. But I haven't.

elFinder is described as " a file manager for web similar to that you use on your computer". On installing Terramaster's elFinder a distinct difference is immediately apparent: Nautilus on my Ubuntu desktop shows me files and folders; elFinder on the TOS 5 WebUI shows me nothing. A left hand column with two row headers called "Places" and "files" and a large central space that is empty.

I have no clue how to start making this useful. Any help from the forum would be very much appreciated.
