Sharing via FTP on Android 6

kagsdfjagsdgf · Post by *kagsdfjagsdgf » 2017-02-15, 11:45 UTC

Hello.

I'm using Total Commander on my Android device and I have installed the FTP plugin with it.

On Android 5 the FTP plugin appeared in the share menu, on Android 6 it's gone. Is this intentional or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

The FTP plugin never appeared in the share menu. You can, however, choose "Total Commander" as the target, and then tap on the home button to access all the plugins too.

Sorry, I didn't explain that enough:

Total Commander appears in the Share Menu (as it always has), and on next screen I could then choose the FTP Plugin. However, that next screen looks like that now:

Could you try the latest beta, please? You can get it via play store here:

I haven't tried the beta yet, but did some more testing. There's 2 scenarios:

1. TC has been started manually before sharing: everything works as expected

2. TC has NOT been started manually before sharing: the aforementioned empty screen appears.

But (and this is something I noticed only yersterday): the screen actually just looks empty. All the option are invisibly there and can be selected if you tap the right spot.

Yes, this should be fixed in the beta!

Yes, works fine in the beta - thank you!

Is that newest beta-version ONLY available via Playstore - or are there neutral opportunities for download as well?
