"Editor" upload file BROKEN - doesnt work :(
-
The online documentation recommends transferring file via the "Editor"..
https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/transferring-files.htmlIT DOES NOT WORK...
You can select a file (and only one at a time, which suck..) and then when you click SUBMIT.. Nothing happens.. the button doesnt even respond.. I tried with a few browsers.. its broken...
I have REALLY tried hard to like this device, but I'm starting to lose patience with this thing..

@Koos-du-Preez , did you also try with a chrome browser?

Given there isn't a widespread howl of despair with other users experiencing the same problem I offer the following:
I tried to use Safari to run Console but no joy. I tried Torch and no luck there. Suggestions online were to use Chrome and that does in fact work. My platform is Mac.
The editor is limited in that you can transfer a single file from your PC to the Omega but you can't transfer a file from your Omega back to your PC. And no, you can't transfer a 'whole folder' within the Editor.
In the Omega documentation there is a section on transferring files which may help.
If you have a Unix based PC (Linux or Mac or whatever) then you can use the rsync command at the unix prompt level to batch transfer. The Omega documentation covers that but it takes a bit of care to key in the command correctly.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Hmm. I am using Chrome and I am on a Mac... it doesnt work..
I eventually went with RSYNC..

Here is a video showing its broken with Chrome on a Mac

I went one easier and just installed the VSFTP package and just FTP to the devices from whatever machine I am on. I ended up going this way because the editor I use (UltraEdit, since ver 2) supports direct FTP editing, but not SCP. So there is that route as well. Anything but the web console.
