web interface, delete files from root directory

Asked by Walter Kirkwood

I've added files to the root directory in the web interface, then I decided to organize in folders. but I can't see how to delete the files or move the files from the root to the subfolders.

Hi! In order to delete a file from the web interface, you click on the filename in the right pane, and then click on the trashcan icon. We don't currently have a way to reorganize or move files using the web interface, and we'll definitely be adding that to the web UI, although I don't have a date to give you for when it will be worked on.

I do not see any trash can icon in the right pane no matter where I click, not for files in the root or files in a subdirectory. the only trash can thats shows up are in the left hand pane and it allows you to delete the entire folder and its contents. but for files in the root (my files) there is no way to delete them at all.

Hi Walter,

when you click in the file you want to delete, two new icons appear in the left corner below the file name:
 1) File informatio
 2) delete file

I don't think this works on firefox v3.0.15

Can you verify if this is the case. There are no icons showing up on the right hand pane under any cases or circumstances. I've invited other programmers to my office just to verify that I'm not seeing things.

Please try clicking on the row containing the filename, not on the filename itself. When I do so in Firefox 3.5, the row expands and two new icons appear: an info icon and a trash can one.

I'm unable to try under Firefox 3.0 right now, though. If it still does not work, can you please file a bug about it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-servers/+filebug ? Thank you.

Can you help with this problem?
