Leading space in directory name

Post by plimpton »

I've come across a bug I believe. If there's a leading space in the directory name you're not able to delete the directory.

A folder starting with space? or any space in a folder name?

Only if it starts with a space. The app allows it to be created with a prepended space, but doesn't allow you to delete or navigate to that newly created folder. It replaces any spaces appended to the end with an underscore, but not the prepended spaces. It allows spaces in the middle and everything works just fine

Ok, I will try to reproduce the problem. Is it with HTTP or FTP?

Could you make the same test with a folder within another folder?
