Transfer is not compatible with Nextcloud 25 about transfer HOT 11 CLOSED

Though the upload file button does not function that way.

The upload file button is a special case. I just opened an issue upstream which, if solved, will allow apps to create other buttons which are similar to the upload file button.

Transfer can't add its button to the menu in the conventional way because that requires it to prompt for the file name within the menu, which we don't want to do because there is a popup with multiple prompts. So we have to use a workaround to add a button which doesn't show a prompt within the menu.

I guess something changed in Nextcloud 25 so that the structure of the menu is different, so the Transfer button needs to be added in a different way.

Just wanted to add to this that in my case it made it so the + files menu would not appear at all. Only after I disabled transfer post nc25 upgrade did my menu come back.

Was getting errors like this in my Firefox while transfer was installed:

Uncaught TypeError: MutationObserver.observe: Argument 1 is not an object.

Hope this helps.

Yep, I can see that. Though the upload file button does not function that way. it's just a click/one-off kind of deal which is probably what you want for Transfer. I wonder if that could provide some kind of hint? I wish I knew more about NC app development. :)

Any update?

Just in case it wasn't noticed - Nextcloud improved policy regarding changes in core to ease app developers in maintaining compatibility with newer Nextcloud versions:

Ia there any chance this app can be updated, so that it works again?

Still waiting for movement on the upstream issue.

Hi everyone, v0.6.1 of the app is now working on the latest version of Nextcloud.

As the upstream issue hasn't been solved, this is still based on a workaround.
