Note!: Before installation, backup your current configuration in FolderView settings (JSON files from VMs and Docker) and remove the old FolderView plugin. FolderView2 lets you create folders for grouping Dockers and VMs together to help with organization. Especially useful if you're using docker-compose. Getting Started: A new button named "Add Folder" will appear at the bottom of the docker and VM tab(s) next to "Add Container", depending on whether they are enabled in Settings or not. Known issue: Custom themes might not yet work correctly with advanced view

Installation

Manual for now, need to figure out how to submit to Unraid app store.

Backup

If you already have this plugins older version setup go to Plugins -> FolderView and "Export All" your current settings!

However if you arelady can't access FolderView go to Settings via UI, go to:

config\plugins\folder.view\ and backup: docker.json and vm.json

root@PlexServer:/boot/config/plugins/folder.view# pwd
/boot/config/plugins/folder.view
root@PlexServer:/boot/config/plugins/folder.view# ls
docker.json  folder.view2-2025.02.26.txz  scripts/  styles/  version  vm.json
root@PlexServer:/boot/config/plugins/folder.view# 

Easy Manual installation

Use link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/VladoPortos/folder.view2/refs/heads/main/folder.view2.plg

That link can be posted directly into the plugin install without needing to copy it to the filesystem beforehand.
