Web file manager changelog

• Added a PS5-only fullscreen/restore button beside the exit button.
• Tried to fix the error when moving multiple files at the same time in the same disk partition. (Issue #31)

Fullscreen is experimental and currently verified on firmware 4.03, 7.00, 7.61, 12.20 and 13.60. Thanks to the community (SHARK, Fubc from Discord and the others from GitHub) for testing and feedback for the fixed offsets of those firmware versions. Please report your firmware version and whether fullscreen and restore work correctly in Issues. If a diagnostic file is generated, attach /data/web-browser-fullscreen.ini to your report.

Nothing changed for wfm-7zip-helper.elf.

Change logs:

• Added utf8 fix for SMB share folders.

No changes for wfm-7zip-helper.elf.

Change logs:

• Report directory read errors instead of silently skipping files.
• Update the home screen launcher to use the active server port.

No changes for wfm-7zip-helper.elf.

Change logs:

• Added samba support. Connection info except password is stored in /data/wfm/config/smb.conf. Password is stored in LocalStorage of the web browser.
• Added meta-data for PKG install. And it supports installing PKG from samba shares.
• Improved multiple transfer speed including HTTP download/upload and copying from/to samba shares.
• Added the filter function for the Name column.
• Added About diag for version brief, credits and licenses. It would show up if you clicked the version string at the bottom right corner.
• `wfm-7zip-helper.elf` got updated to v26.03-2. Improved the write speed to disk drive while extracting.

Change log:

• Clicking on an ELF file to send it to port 9021 of elfldr.
• Able to drag and drop files or directories to upload from PC web browser.
• wfm-7zip-helper.elf got updated with smaller size of ELF file, version 26.03-1.

Change log:

• Added archive extract support via 7zip helper (.7z, .001, .zip, .zipx, .rar, .part01.rar, .arj, .bz2, .bzip2, .tbz, .tbz2, .cab, .gz, .gzip, .tgz, .tpz, .lzh, .lha, .tar, .xz, .txz, .z, .taz, .zst, .tzst, .xar, .xip, .cpio, .lzma, .pmd).

How to use wfm-7zip-helper.elf:
Place it at /data/wfm/wfm-7zip-helper.elf. It would be sent to elfldr automatically by the main process when starting up. Or you could launch it manually by sending it to elfldr or via Payload Manager.

P.S.,
Because this software is licensed as GPLv3+, Unrar could not be implemented. So this archive extract function is built seperately as wfm-7zip-helper.elf. So for detailed licenses, go check WFM 7zip helper.

Change log:

• Able to preview PS4/PS5 PKG info.
• It would close the web browser after clicking the shutdown process button at the top-right corner.

Change log:

• Added permission modification function. It's kind of hidden because you have to click on the permission mode column to change it. It supports muti-selection.
• Fixed the problem that it fails to install base game PKGs. But it's not possible to install PKGs fro /mnt/ext? which is not supported by PS5 natively.

Change log:

• Made the available devices at the top-right corner clickable. They would lead you to the correspond path like /data, /mnt/usb? or /mnt/ext?.
• Optimized HTTP download and upload speed via a remote web browser. (Above 80 MB/s from/to the internal storage /data as I tested on the thick-model PS5 on FW 11.60 and bove 100 MB/s for /mnt/ext1. Speed would drop down when uploading multiple small files.)

Change log:

• Circle button is 'go to parent folder‘. It won't close the browser now.
• Circle button won't close the browser while processing tasks or displaying overlays.
• Auto focus to parent folder after going back.
• Optimize address bar for path displaying overflow.

Change log:

• Fixed the problem that PKG install failure from /data/ internal storage.
• Moved back button to the header of Name column.
• Highlighted the icons of those paths are usually used, including /data/ and /mnt/.

Change log:

• Able to click to install a PKG file or select multiple ones to install at once.
• Changed the way to end self daemon process.

Change log:

• Remove size calculation for delete progress in the background.
• Improved overwrite safety: copy/move now writes to a temporary file before replacing the target.
• Simplified and hardened space checks for overwrite operations.
• Improved upload space checks to match temporary-file upload behavior.
• Fixed unsaved text editor close confirmation behavior.

Change log:

• Added upload/download support from PC/mobile browsers, including files, folders and multi-selected objects. (Feature suggested by mainlxl)
• Added sortable file list columns with saved sort preference.
• Added current path saving function. Refresh/re-open browser would open the path when closing last time.
• Other small tweaks for improvement.

Others:

It could never be perfect. Even though the version comes to v1.0 but it never means it's perfect. So use at your own risk.

Change log:

• Improved large copy/move/delete requests by sending path lists with form POST instead of long query strings.
• Optimized target permission checks before multi-item copy/move: the same target directory is checked only once, avoiding repeated writable checks during preparation for large paste/move operations.

Hotfix:

• Fixed displaying available space of the internal M.2 on the top right corner of the web page.

Change log:

• Optimized the display for narrow mobile screens. It’s not perfect, but at least the content will no longer be cut off.
• Fixed the issue of Multi-language filenames appearing garbled in display/operation.

Change log:

• Tweaked CSS codes to improve UI compatibility for lower firmware version. Tested on FW 4.03.
• No back-end changes, but app install process would not overwrite existing icon and param files.

Warning:

Copying directly to folders scanned by ShadowMountPlus might cause kernel panic. So copy to other folders not scanned but in the same disk and move it to the scanned folder. Or stop ShadowMountPlus before copying.

Change log:

• Switch back to the safer single-threaded recursive mode for folder copy/preparation for better stability.
• Fixed elapsed time display when opening the progress overlay from another browser during an active task.
• Made ETA calculation backend-driven for consistent multi-client progress.

Tested on FW 11.60 with transferring files/folders between internal storage/internal m.2/USB storage.

Change log:

• Fixed the issue that prepare stage occurs for move in the same disk. It's quick now.
• Tried to improve copying speed with multiple pipes for big files and multiple workers for small files.
• Improved the progress overlay dialog.

FAQ:

• This is a homebrew app which does not affect system process or memory. It should crash itself instead of kernel panic theoretically. If kernel panic happens, make sure you'r using the latest jailbreak methods which includes latest elfldr. Or switch back to the stable method you have been using.
• If you're using P2JB, I suggest not to use this if kernel panic happened. It is suffering to wait another 50 min because of kernel panic. Stability first for P2JB.
• The preparing stage is calculating the folder size. It would be pretty slow if there are too many files in this folder. It make sure if there is enough available space for this folder you were trying to copy/move.

Change log:

• New feature: Create/edit text files ending with .txt, .json, .xml, .ini, .cfg, .conf, .md, .log, .lua, .js, .css, .html, .htm, .c, .h, .cpp, .hpp, .sh, .csv, .yaml, .yml.

Tested on fw 11.60.

Take your own risk to try.
