Limitations

For the sake of simplicity and safety, the following limits apply.

1. Files
   • Allowed characters in a filename are all letters and numbers, as well as the special characters hyphen ( - ), underscore ( _ ), and period ( . ).
   • Don't use .tmp files. They are used temporarily for the upload and may be deleted.
2. Folders
   • Allowed characters in a folder name are all letters and numbers, as well as the special characters hyphen ( - ), underscore ( _ ), slash ( / ) and backslash ( \ ).

TIP

• You can upload all files and folders with every character, a safe name is automatically generated for you.
• You can also simply insert files and folders directly into the upload folders, as long as they do not exceed the allowed limits.

Configuration file

In the root folder where the executable is, you can create a config file named "config.conf". Or setup the corresponding environment variables.

Take a look on the configuration site for a list of the parameters and more information.
