Add ability to customize the FTP message for every FTP action; for example, if there is no data transfer, we should be able to change the message shown in the console, than just show "Connection timed out".

In user management dialog, inside the "Page" field, there should be a "Statistics" page, where some statistics such as Nubmer of logins and total data transferred (and others :) will be logged.

Each user should have separate no-connection and no-data-transfer timeout options from the others. Of course, the global options can exist.

When adding a shared folder, other than the home folder, the user should be forced to enter a name and the vitual FTP path. The way it is now (v0.9.24), adding a shared folder without an alias, is meaningless, since it doesn't appear in the client's list.

FileZilla does not connect to some FTP/SSL sites. Those sites have a requirement that a command be entered before the connection is allowed. This command is ccc. It stands for Clear Command Channel. Other FTP programs have the option to "send a command" before the do the first directory listing. This should also be a feature in FileZilla where we can run commands as soon as the client is connected and before we do anything else.

When publishing files, I often have to upload a file from one directory in the webroot tree of my development server, to the same folder in the tree of the publish server. It's very annoying having to walk both trees every time. It would be very helpful if, at the toggle of a button, I could navigate both views at the same time, provided that the folders exist. It should be simple to check if there's a folder with the same name in the remote view when you navigate the local tree (and vice-versa) and navigate there as well. A bonus would be if the file you've selected on one of the views would become highlighted on both sides.

It would be great if I could pick a file in the local view, and then automatically upload it to it's respective folder in the remote tree (and vice-versa). So if you're looking at, say, /www/sub/dir/files/index.html in the local view, and /www/sub/ in the remote view, and you hit "Upload to same folder", it will still upload to /www/sub/dir/files/index.html in the remote folder, and not into the folder you're looking at.

Obviously for that you'd need to know which folder is the local "root" of the remote folder, but you already have that option under "Default Local Directory" and a "Default Remote Directory" as a per-site option. This option could become available when you're connected to a site where this is defined, and you're somewhere inside the folder tree of your defined local root. The same could work backwards, clicking "Download to same folder" on the remote view would place the file in the same folder in the tree defined by your local root folder.

I often have to upload several files from several directories, and it would be very helpful if I didn't have to navigate through the tree all the time in order to find them. It would be great if I could set the tree views to show both folders and files. See for example Eclipse's explorer listings.

It would be great if it was possible to choose where the command console and transfer panels go. The server output isn't so important to me, but I don't want to turn it off either because I like seeing what's going on. If I could move it to the bottom of the window instead, it would be less of a distraction and take up less of my useful screen estate.

it would be nice to be able to select multiple files for editing, so they can be opened as tabs in an editor which is able to do so (eg notepad++)

Hello,

I can see that FileZilla support the MVS platform. It would be nice if you could add the support of the AS400 platform in particular the QSYS filesystem.

For your information the AS400 is like the MVS platform a proprietary IBM platform with a specific OS called i5/OS (formerly OS400).

Thanks.

O.D.

It could be a very fantastic feature to let filezilla remember the local/remote file matching when uploading. So if you simply double-click the local file it would be uploaded in the last remembered remote folder, without having to search for that in the remote panel, that is very chore and repetitive.

Hello, it will be great when private key support for the scp protocol will be added.:)

If I try to download 20-20 files from 2 servers (A & B), and I have 1-1 connection to both, I can't setup-and-forget Filezilla to do this. I can only limit the maximum simultaneous transfer to 2, but it won't instruct the Filezilla client to download 1 file from server A, and another file from server B, because it will try to download 2 files from server A when started, and the second download attempt would fail (I can mix up the download list, but it is troublesome)

So an option to limit the maximum connection to each server connection would do great. (this would override "maximum simultaneous transfer", so the user should set either "maximum simultaneous transfer" or this one)

Hello,

I saw that my previous feature request was closed because you lacked some information about the AS400 platform and the way the FTP was working with it. Well, as a start this is what I suggest what you could do to add this support . Add the following two commands when the AS400 platform os selected :

quote site namefmt 1 : this command is going to tell to the remote AS400 FTP server to put himself in a regular unix standard naming schema.

quote site listfmt 1 : this command is going to tell the remote AS400 FTP server to display the list (when you do the ls command) of its file like a unix machine.

Those 2 commands should be executed as soon as we are logged on the AS400 FTP server. This would be a very simple starting point which is going to give FileZilla software access to the AS400 server whatever the as400 file system is used. After that the support could be improved if fileZilla let the user to enter personalize d commands ( such as the above one). For your information the AS400 QSYS file system when you use its normal naming convention as a limited depth and does not go deeper than the following :

/QSYS.LIB/library_name.LIB/file_name.FILE/member_name.MBR

the above format is what the path is going to be if you run the "quote site namefmt 1" and "quote site listfmt 1" commands. the library_name, file_name and membr_name are no more than 10 characters long. in the previous path what you have in uppercase it is some constants that never change. So when you do a put in that file system you must write something like this :

put file_name.txt EXAMPLE.FILE/EXAMPLE.MBR

It can also be defaulted to

put file_name.txt EXAMPLE.FILE

In this case the member name (MBR part) will be EXAMPLE.MBR.

Anyway, you will find below some FTP session example :

230 xxxx logged on. Remote system type is . ftp> quote site namefmt 1 250 Now using naming format "1". ftp> quote site listfmt 1 250 Directory listing format (LISTFMT) option set to 1. ftp> pwd 257 "/QSYS.LIB/QGPL.LIB" is current library. ftp> ls 200 PORT subcommand request successful. 125 List started. d------r-x 1 QPGMR 0 114688 May 09 2007 QAAPFILE#.FILE d------r-x 1 QPGMR 0 139264 May 09 2007 QAAPFILE@.FILE drwx---r-x 1 QSYS 0 45056 May 09 2007 QAFCGRPH.FILE drwx---r-x 1 QSYS 0 36864 May 09 2007 QAFCPFDDTA.FILE drwx---r-x 1 QSYS 0 36864 May 09 2007 QAFCTUTDBF.FILE drwx---r-x 1 QSYS 0 151552 May 09 2007 QAFCTUTOR.FILE drwx---r-x 1 QSYS 0 307200 May 09 2007 QAFCTUTPFD.FILE ftp> cd QUSRSYS 501 Unknown extension in database file name. ftp> cd QUSRSYS.LIB 250 "/QSYS.LIB/QUSRSYS.LIB" is current library.

There is only 2 extensions at the object level supported by the AS400 QSYS filesystem : .FILE and .SAVF. For the latter one, only binary transfer is valid

Some additionnal information can be found in the following IBM book : ​http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg245190.pdf at the chapter 6. another IBM book about FTP on the AS400can be found here : ​http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/systems/scope/i5os/topic/rzaiq/rzaiq.pdf.

There is also this link but you must dig a little bit : ​http://search400.techtarget.com/generic/0,295582,sid3_gci1049532,00.html

Hope this help

Many log parser scripts are unable to parse Filezilla Server Logs in thier current form. Can we have an option for loggin formats in the server i.e. XFERLOG or W3C extended format.

Extend the FileZilla client with a file move option (similar to the CTRL-X CTRL-V action in Explorer). In other words instead of having to delete the file(s) in the source directory after the transfer manualy FileZilla could, through a new interface option/menu, perform the delete after transfering a file to it's destination.

Hey, this is a great project, I am much happier with this client than WINSCP.

A few things:

• The timezone offset should be computer based, with a UTF offset for the FTP of the server. If I am working in the MDT time zone, and then move my laptop to the PST time zone, the FTP servers (in New York) have not changed, but my offset has. Grabbing the information from the system would not be difficult, so I would just change my timezone in Windoze, and the timestamps would work correctly (currently, I could change the 15 FTP access manually using Filezilla)
• Sync: it has been mentioned before, having the system verify any changes in my local folder and auto uploading on save, would be a very useful feature for a web developer, so I am not jumping around in folders
• Local editor: I use editplus to edit most of my files, when I am on the local pane, I should be able to right click, and edit the file, and maybe select a program with which to edit.

Good stuff, keep up the good work!

I think it would help bug reporting if the "About" dialog box had a "copy version info" button which simply copied all relevant version information to the clipboard, to be pasted into a bug report. This could then even contain the OS and Version used, Compilation date etc. and not just the FileZilla version number in question. Basically, it could include any info you'd need for debugging that's accessible to you at runtime.

FZ Client Version used: 3.0.4.1 on Windows XP Prof. SP2

1. Make it possible on the local size to right-click on a file and select OPEN.

2. Make it easier to save particular directories as individual sites (e.g. Favorites) for quicker navigation to specific places.

3. Make it an option to write the settings to the Registry so that if the XML file gets corrupted, settings are not lost.

Thank you!

I'd like to support FileZilla the UTF-8 / unicode directory- and filename-encoding for internationalization. (I'm from Hungary :-)

I love Filezilla, but it lacks one feature that I have seen in other FTP clients, the ability to split the transfer of large files on multiple threads.

On certain connections that greatly increases the throughput.

I need use 2 or more computer that share same sitemanager.xml to organize all sites addresses. If could be configure the location file of Site Manager, simplify the organization.

Tx!

In Site Manager, I want to be able to drag and drop sites from one folder to another as is with FileZilla 2.

Hello, I noticed that filezilla "beeps" when the connection fails, wouldn't it be good to add a sound when the connection is successful?

If i use vista for upload, there are many hidden system files in my profile directory. So it would be more clear if i could hide all hidden files on windows.

The idea is to make a 'link' or 'lock' button which you can 'punch in' when you are in the same folder locally and remote.

When linked, if you change your folder locally, FZ changes the remote folder (if applicable) to the folder you chose locally. If remote is n/a the link gets severed and you get a message 'folder not found' or similar.

This could also work vice versa.

Would be very handy if you need to upload some files to a project in different folders (eg. css files, images etc.)

Would also be handy as a checkbox in the sitemanagement tool. 'link folders on connect'

I am missing a refresh button. I found out that F5 works, but I prefer a button.

FileZilla Client 3.0.5.2 does not have a creator code for OS X. This creates problems when trying to set FileZilla as the default FTP handler. I suggest using 'FiZi' or some such. This can be set in the Info.plist file under the 'CFBundleSignature' key.

I would like to see the servermanager by startup. It would save one step

When developing web sites I often find myself having to open each directory and 'hand-picking' certain files which I want to upload. I usually have a lot of files whick I don't want to upload and therefor I can't just drag the 'root' directory over to the server. It would be a time saver if there was an option under settings where I could add extensions which FileZilla should ignore. What do you guys think?

I have been using Filezilla for a long time and wondered if it is able to keep remote directory up to date.

When I open up an FTP site (e.g. to update a webpage) I sometimes have to go down a few directories for the page to be uploaded. I thought it would be great that the program could:

1. Upload the local file (in its sub-directory) to the correct sub-directory on the remote.

or

2. As I navigate on the local pane, the remote pane also corresponds to what I am viewing (or vice-versa, if I am navigating the remote pane).

Any such availability in FZ? Thanks

On my vista system there are a lot of files and directorys wich are hidden by default bacause there have there system or hidden attribute.

So it would be good if i can create a filter based on file attributes insted only of filename and filesize.

it would be great if there were an option to attach a simplified simple editbox that did the same thing as the "Enter Custom Command" dialog, below the log, or below the file list of the remote view, or somewhere in the gui

it would greatly simplify adminning tasks when using lots of site-commands for adding/removing users and flags

it would be great to add a menu with pre-configured site commands for simple administrative tasks, which could popup the user for input...

example menu item: add->user

would pop up for example an input box with description "Please input user name! ie. john" and an editbox where the user could input that (let's say "user1" in this example),

and then another box for "Allowed IPS" +editbox where user could fill "192.168.0.10".

and then filezilla would send "site adduser user1 192.168.0.10" to the remote server

of course this would require some kind of file that holds the menu items..

something like

[add/user] command=site adduser $1 $2 1.desc=Please input user name!\nie. john 2.desc=Allowed IPs:\nie. 127.0.0.1

or whatever, best to keep it simple so people can make their own commands

thanks

I'm missing a feature to connect to servers from my "normal" server list (with all their options) without having to call the Server Manager again and again. I do know the "Reconnect" command, but I'm switching between multiple servers quite often.

Transfers from VMS to MS Windows in version 2.2.32 stripped the version number from the file name (e.g. ABCDEF.GHI;2 -> ABSCDF.GHI). Version 3.0.5.2 retains the VMS version number. I prefer the version number be stripped from the file name, but an option to either retain or strip the version number would probably be best.

I often download very large files and I would love to see a summary in the log of the download when it completes. For example:

"<filename> with size <size> download completed in <time> with average speed of <X> kbps."

Or something like that.

Thanks!

What happened to the automatic connect feature in Filezilla? In older versions, there was an option in Site Manager to automatically connect to a specific server at startup. I know this feature may not seem very usefull but since I typically connect to the same server, it's a nice feature for me. Thanks.

Currently apparently Filezilla has no consern for the encoding of filenames. So, if you are on Windows and you FTP into a more current distros of Unix the filenames sent to Windows will be in UTF-8. Because Filezilla does nothing to the filenames it will pass them to Windows directly even though Windows is expecting some other encoding.

This makes it nearly impossible to use filezilla for any filename that is not Ascii (ie, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Korean, ...)

The solution is

1) add a setting for server's filename encoding in preferences with at least the setting of UTF-8 as an option (other encodings might be nice) (should be the default?)

2) When receiving a filename from the server, immediately call MultiByteToWideChar to convert the string from whatever encoding to UTF-16. (That means all strings in FileZilla will need to be widechar strings)

3) Call the correct Windows API functions, CreateFileW, FindFirstFilenameW etc using the widechar strings

4) Before sending any filename to the server call WideCharToMultiByte to convert the filename into the format the server expects.

This will make FillZilla work with international filenames.

would be interested in an option to edit interface view. for example not to show local/remote treeview. editing view was available in filezilla 2x

I like the option to choose a default action when a file already exists. But I would prefer two new options for "Always use this action". At the moment the options apply to current queue and apply to current session exist. The two new options I'd like to suggest are "apply to current site (all sessions)" and "apply to all sessions".

In FileZilla 2.x I had the possibility to choose "overwrite" and this setting was remembered for all future sessions. I liked this option, because I know what I'm doing and I don't want to choose "overwrite" again and again when I start FileZilla.

some helpful features for the queue window :

1) Action after queue completion --> run command : excellent feature I just discovered. would be nice to maybe have this option available as a default operation after transfer completed, this way one won't need to re-add the command after each time he queues files for transfer. or even a way to save certain cmds one wants to use frequently.

2) an option to ascent or descend the order of files by clicking on the server/local file bar.

3) an option to move files up or down the queue (by dragging files or/and right click options). similiar to move to top/end of queue or end of queue or move up/down which some ftp clients have.

4) option to perform deletion of files using highlight + delete key (for specific files) or control+A+delete (for the whole queue). that's only available through right click options at the moment.

Please write simple release notes for each release. Lengthy changelog is too much for average users. Thanks.

What I'd like to see are synchronize commands like "Sync Local -> FTP" and "Sync FTP -> Local".

I use FileZilla to upload the pages to my website, and it can get hard sometimes remembering which pages have been modified or added, so sync commands will really prove useful, where all I need to do is provide the local source and ftp destination folders (or vice versa), and then all files and folders that are newer must be transferred, in a single click.

The current set of filters is great, but how about adding the following "Frontpage Files/Folders" that applies to both files and folders?

Filename IS EQUAL TO _vti_cnf Filename IS EQUAL TO _vti_pvt Filename IS EQUAL TO _vti_private Filename CONTAINS do_not_publish

Option for to disable disconnectivity after 300 sec when no files are transfered of timeout. or to extend this 300 seconds.

I have tried several times to extend this 300 seconds, maybe I am looking in the wrong section or maybe this feature isn't built in.

Support for if the connection is lost (because the timeout etc.) that it will connect again and that it will bring you automatically to the folder on the server that you had left open in Filezilla Client.

It is lot of easier because of the fact, I have to search the folder again from the parent directory to the folder to upload my files and that is alot of time consuming.

hi

if you could add this feature "minimizing on terry" on next release

i think it is very usefull

thanks

Hello,

You are right about the CHGFTPA command, but as you said it is annoying to change this parameter globally because in our case we have some other script which may rely on the default way that the AS400 list the directories informations. As you said, I guess it shouldn't be to difficult to at least let the possibiblity to a filezilla user to add some customized command that would help a lot.

Thanks.

O.D.

Dear Filezilla team,

• In FZ2 the effect of double clicking on a file was configurable (Edit or launch file/Transfer); I may have missed it, but it seems that it is not the case anymore in FZ3, and I regret it.

• It would be nice to add an option to launch the Site manager on startup (like in FZ2 again).

• Although this could be useful for certain user, I find the automatic notice that a recently transfered file has been edited ("Do you want to update it ?") quite annoying. Would it be possible to add the option to turn the automatic transfer of edited files off ?

Thanks in advance and above all, thanks for this nice program !

I really miss a "Synchronized browsing" feature. When you enable it (e.g., pressing a toolbar button) the program switches to "foo" remote directory when you enter "foo" local directory (and viceversa).

Example:

Local root: C:\Documents\Sites\Foo\htdocs Remote root: /home/xyz/htdocs

If you enter:

C:\Documents\Sites\Foo\htdocs\images

remote panel switches to:

/home/xyz/htdocs/images

I'd find it very useful when I'm uploading files to my web sites.

WinSCP has this feature.

It would be lovelly to have tha ability to set any FTP transfer to a certain time(hh:mm) and date(yyyy-mm-dd) to a list of files.

It would simply kick ass if FileZilla could record some actions(, edit, save, delete and execute them too).

When operating behind a firewall, there is a need to connect to sites that are both behind and outside of the firewall. It would be a good thing to be able to enable/disable the use of the FTP proxy on a site by site basis. Right now, you have to set the proxy to 'None' to connect to the internal sites and set it to the proxy to use to access sites outside the firewall. Unfortunately, setting the proxy to 'None' loses the custom proxy settings (which I have to use).

This feature I am requesting to add is:

All enabling/disabling of the use of the FTP proxy by site in the client.

Add a new proxy option: USER@HOST FIREWALLID The proxy option has the following script:

USER %u@%h %s PASS %p ACCT %w

Please bring back the "Default site" option to the Site Manager. This option allows a particular site to be selected automatically upon opening the Site Manager. This feature was in FileZilla 2.x. For more info, see 1792193.

I have looked over the requests and couldn't find this, so I thought I would add it.

It would be nice if the window with which you can view the sites in the Site Manager was larger. It used to be really large back in FZ 2.x. What I am talking about is the area that is viewable for the tree of sites just below the words "Select Entry".

I do a lot of folders and sub-folders to organize the sites that I have, and it is annoying when I can only see a couple of them, and then not all the descriptions show up because they are beyond the viewable area.

I would have to say this is the probably the only thing in FZ 3.x that I would consider a bad change from FZ 2.x.

I would like to say that the software as a whole is excellent, and one of the best ftp programs out there.

Thank you for your time, and excellent product. Joshua Swain

I just wanna move some files to another directory on the remote host. This will be useful when arranging files. Thanks for your work.

I have the Dutch version of FileZilla. It's called "Sitebeheer", "Uitgebreid", "Standaard externe map". I think it's translated in English: "Sitemanagement", "Advanced", "Default remote path".

Entering a value here always puts a "/" in front of it. This is not allways wanted, because when logging on to a ftp server I am put into a directory not neccesarily the root directory. I want to enter a relatvie path from the directory in wich I'm entering the ftp-server. For example "./mainwebsite_html/agp-w"

Further I must really compliment you with this excellent FTP client solution. I'm running it on Windows Vista Business 64bits and all works very nice and smooth. Even the updates are very well thought off !

Regards, Mirco Babin Veghel, The Netherlands

Hi and thanks for great product. It would be a great help if you could add the "Site Name" to the Title Bar. Currently it says Username@192.168.1.1 It would help if it said MY_SITE_NAME - Username@192.168.1.1 This is because I sometimes use the same username for different sites and then I'm not sure which site I'm working on.

Thanks and keep up the great effort.

I tend to work on two or three sites on any given day, so it would be extremely useful if there was a dropdown list of recently accessed sites, so I did not have to scroll through my long list of sites every time.

Is it possible you could strip the stable Linux build, that would reduce the linux package alot.

Thanks.

I've used the windows xp version and i love it. but when i use it on vista it sucks. I can't disconnect unless i close the program, i can't pause the downloads one by one. If you could put the same features as windows xp in the vista version itd be awesome. thanks

I have the FileZilla Server installed as service on a server that only I have access to. It is set to offline most of the time and only switched online for a specific download task (security reasons).

Several people have access to the Server Interface to be able to switch it online temporarily. It would be ideal if it were possible to set the FTP Server offline at startup of the service, now I have to do this manually (and remember it in particular) after a reboot of the server. Setting the service to start manually wouldn´t help me since I´m the only one with access to the service and the other users rely on the FilZilla Server service to provide them access to the Server Interface.

To make theming of FileZilla easier something else instead of one global themes.xml file should be used. FileZillla could, for example, instead look for *.xml files in a resources/themes directory and load everything from there.

ATM you have to manually edit the global themes.xml file which makes creating standalone themes more difficult. (For example within package management systems.)

Hello,

i have a lot of Users they are do al lot of trafic. I was great when i can select a Filter (by UserId, IP etc). If i select User1 thne only show Messages from User1 in the Server Interface.

Else i lost the overview...

Greetings

Sorry for my "god" englisch

a new icon them, based on famfamfam silk icon set

As of 3.0.7.1 keep-alives are being sent during a file transfer. I don't think I know of a server that will time out during a transfer, so this isn't really necessary. :)

This is the best FTP client I've ever used, and I edit remote files 100+ times a day with it.

What would save a lot of time for guys like me is having the option to save a file in the editor and have it automatically upload without this dialog:

"A file previously opened has changed: xxxx.xxx Upload this file back to the server?"

Maybe the dialog could include a checkbox to the effect of "Always use this answer."

Note: I'm really excited about the keep alive timeout fix in 3.0.7.1. Thanks!

None of the sort tabs work, either by name, direction, size, or priority. It would also be nice to right click "pause" or stop. Not just stop and remove or unprocess queue.

When remote browser retrieves a long list of files, we need a search function like the searchbox in vista explorer. flashfxp has this function also(Ctrl-F).

Filezilla's broad feature support makes it a useful tool. However, storing FTP passwords would be much safer if it used the system's password mechanism. Gnome provides Keyring, KDE provides Kwallet, and OS X provides Keychain. Please include optional support for these mechanisms.

Hi, when a file transfer is happening, if I scroll up in the log, it keeps moving and I can't really read it.

My sugestion is that as soon as the log isn't at the very bottom, scrolling is frozen (though it continues to fill) so I can look back at the log and read entries while the transfer is still proceeding.

1. Option for hiding directorys that are hidden or marked as system (But still accessable)

2. Edit section for ban'ed Ip address's Said ip maybe a freind messing around (you may want to let them back in)

3. An option for restricting the number of connections from a single ip address.

4. Site Message Option - Drop a message to all or a single user that the Server may be comming down for work in a few.

.

Add a right-click "copy URL" (to clipboard) feature to remote files/folders. Associate a URL with sites/paths in the site manager and use this to compute the answer. This is the feature I miss the most from "Smart FTP Client". --joe

GlobalSCAPE CuteFTP has a feature called "Lockstep Folder Navigation" that I would love to see implemented in FileZilla as well. When you navigate to a folder in one pane, the program automatically navigates to the equivalent location in the other pane. I'll give an example to explain better:

You connect to a server. The left-hand pane (your local machine) is showing "C:\Website". The right-hand pane displays the contents of the server, "/". Suppose that both contain a folder called "images." You double-click on the images folder in the left-hand pane, opening it, so now the left-hand pane shows "C:\Website\images". With lockstep navigation, the right-hand pane would then automatically navigate to "/images/", without requiring the user to click on the images folder in this pane.

In other words, it would detect that you navigated to a folder in one pane that has an equivalent in the other pane, and accordingly would open both. Similarly, if you were to double-click on the ".." folder in the right pane at this point, it would move up by one directory in both panes.

This is a time-saving, convenience feature--it's not a bug fix or anything critical--but it really is fantastic, and I hope to see it in future versions of FileZilla.

Many people are using WinScp (which I find has an inferior interface and is slower than filezilla) only because they need the Scp protocol and make calls to Putty.

If you implement this, we can just switch over to Filezilla!

Thanks and best regards, Cheski

The menu structure is confusing as the Export to file and Import from file is under the Edit menu. I assumed that this feature did not exist as it wasn't under the File menu.

From a usability point of view both Import and Export should be under the File menu.

I love your server, but I am running into issues that boxes that I have only support SFTP. I would love to see SFTP support in your server.

It would be really nice if FileZilla could support Tango Icon Library ​http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library#Install and others created by users!

Thanks for the excellent and high quality software!

It's great if FZ has somewhere to store favourite folders (quick folders), so that we can go quickly to some folders (both in Client and Server) that frequently used

Hi,

Would it be possible to have shortcuts to remote directories in the site manager, like in CuteFTP ? It's really helpfull !

Thanks for your great job !!!

Best regards,

Fred

Add a function to copy paths of files to clipboard, also make it possible to copy more the one url at the same time.

The best thing I like to see is that it's possible to copy url and i convert it to the www adress. eg copy path ​ftp://ftp.server.com:21//public_html/lo ... f/the/file

converted to

​http://www.server.com/location/of/the/filehotmail.com

Like in transmit for osx

Hello,

a very important feature is a way to export a XML file with all settings and data of Site Manager, for security (I want to backup the data every day using a .BAT file) and to install Filezilla in a new computer, for example, to restore identical configs on it.

Thank you! Rogerio (long time Filezilla user)

Would be great if I could add a global setting to never upload my .svn folders. (ie. ignore folder, exclude folder) Thanks :)

FileZilla is getting better and better, unfortunately passwords are stored in cleartext (filezilla.xml). I would also appreciate if you could implement the "ask for password" feature in FTPproxy-settings. Otherwise periodicaly changing passwords tend to make hotlines busy.

It could be very nice to add file and directory exclusions for uploads.

For example, I work with SVN and I have a ton of ".svn" directories in my web projects. When I upload one to a FTP server, I would like not to upload the ".svn" directories and their contents...

I'd see a double option on a per-site configuration option as well as a general option.

Our office does a lot of web design and everyone agrees that this would be an awesome feature!

If there could be a toggle button on the main tool bar that puts Filezilla Client into SDT (Simultaneous Directory Traversal) mode which means that if you change directory in the local window, it will look for a directory with the same name on the remote side. If it finds one it automatically opens it.

If you are in a directory of the same name in both local and remote windows and you move back a directory in the local window then it also moves back a directory on the remote side too.

It would be great to have it have this functionality in both the remote window and local window... I described it above with only the local window firing this special functionality but that was just to keep the wording simple. It should definitely be turned on for both given the toggle is on.

There should also be an option in settings that lets you say whether the check for whether you are in a folder of the same name is case sensitive or not... with the default being 'not'.

This feature would save us a TONNE of time over the course of a month with the number of times we have to click 'includes' on both, then '..' on both, then 'admin' on both etc. while simply trying to update files quickly that are located in different directory without using the tree view.

It takes too many steps to resume failed transfers

I'd like something like a button or context menu alternative such as "move all failed transfers to queue tab and resume transfer"

This instead of having to mark all failed transfers moving them back to the queue tab, and then resume transfer.

Please mention the plain-text version of the properties, FileZilla SErver.xml, in your wiki/FAQ/docs somewhere. I hope to use this file for replicating an installation from one machine to another, and it would be helpful to know whether that file is really the source of properties or not.

If you really want to make a new feature, I was thinking you might want as an Export/Import sort of thing, for people who are not happy with finding an XML file in the install folder, but that is not strictly necessary.

Thanks for listening.

After changing a file via View/Edit filezilla always asks if it should resubmit the altered file. Is it possible to turn those questions off in the options?

For regular / re-occurring file transfers, it would be great to have either a dedicated scheduler, or at least be able to run FileZilla from a command line with all switches/options which could then be set up for regular-re-occurring execution by the Windows event scheduler. Thanks!

I do a lot of editing of files, and currently to make a copy of a file before I edit it, I do this:

1. Switch to c:\temp
2. Copy file from remote to temp
3. Rename it locally to filename.ext.backup
4. Re-upload to server

Would be great if I could just ctrl+drag a file on the remote view to create a copy of a file.

Or right-click and "Create backup" which will just copy a file and put .backup on the end of it.

:)

I'm running Filezilla 3.0.8.1 on linux.

There are a few things I'd love to see improved with the Site Manager "Sites" UI.

• I'd like to be able to make the sites viewing area wider or narrower on demand. Right now there is a fairly small space and it feels a little cramped, especially when I want to have longer names, or folder trees. Right now, it uses scrollbars, but I'd like to be able to change the size via drag&drop.

• When trying to rename/delete/copy sites or folders, the keyboard shortcuts don't seem to be working. Pressing R or D or C will simply select the site that has those letters as their first letter. It won't actually delete them until I manually click the buttons.

• I can't seem to drag&drop existing sites between folders. I can add a folder, and add a site to that folder, but I can't move sites between folders. I'd like it if I could add a folder, then move an existing site to that folder.

• In the General tab, in the Logontype dropdown menu. I'd like to be able to type the first letter of the option I want and it automatically selects it (this is the standard html behavior). Right now, when you have the dropdown menu active, pressing N for 'Normal' doesn't do anything, but I'd like it to select the 'Normal' option, and so on.

Thanks for your time!

I habitually upload multiple files to servers, always with the same settings, "Overwrite if source newer" and "Always use this action." Of course, other people have their own preferences they usually use.

Please make FileZilla Client remember the last-used settings for this dialog box, even on the next execution of the software. This saves time having to select the same options again and again.

Thanks, and keep up the great work!

Hello,

escuse me for my poor english.

I just want to tranfert automatically a directory an its sub-diretories from my first ftp server to my second ftp server, by pass my computer, because my servers don't accept FXP.

This is what I do manually : 1) I connect to my first server 2) I download a selected directory and sub-dirextories and files into a temporary directory in my local computer 3) when it's done I delete on my fisrt server the selected directory and sub-dirextories and files 4) when it's done I disconnect my first server 5) I connect to my second directory 6) I upload the downloaded directory and sub-dirextories and files 7) when it's done I disconnect my second server

Is it possible to do these 7 step automatically with filezilla ?

My mail is nospam.top_nullus-void@… without "nospam.","-void","remove-"

thank you

Hello

escuse me for my poor english

when I use filezilla on internet, I can't download or upload more than one file at time.

when I use filezilla on intranet, I can download or upload more than one file at time.

each time I connect it's necessary to change setting\transfert\maximum silmutaneous number

is it possible to have a global or a parent properties for a group, and a private or child property in the group ?

thank you

It would be very helphull if the (ej. ;2) version number is removed when transfering a file from Open VMS. At this moment when you transfer a file from VMS, it also transfer the version number as part of the whole name. This make impossible to detect in AUTO mode if the file is ASCII or Binary and also no association could be made on the Windows side unless you remove the version number.

Example File with version number: test.txt;10 File without version number: test.txt

I would like to see support of Cerberus FTP Server's Virtual Root Directory for Users to be included in the next release of FileZilla.
