I regularly move a large number of files. Large in number and in size (generally around 30-40 folders, totalling 8-10GB).
I did this in the Nextcloud web client, as if I did it locally, NC would sometimes recognise the files as new, not moved; hence, syncing on a remote client would take forever.
This was only reliably possible in the web client, WebDAV (in Nautilus or Windows File Explorer) tends to stall when moving more than a small number of files.
Was there a strong reason for the removal of this basic feature? Will it be returning?
Ah, the button is indeed missing in the realese version of NC 28 and was then added three days ago to 28.0.1, and I’ve already updated my test instance to 28.0.1 RC1. So you’ll probably just have to wait a few more days until 28.0.1 is released, or if you’re feeling adventurous, you can update to the 28.0.1 RC1 via the beta channel right now.
I’m feeling conservative, so will hang on for a few days til the update is pushed, it should be a few days anyway until I need to move any large number of files
