Wing FTP Software

Hi,

When I send a weblink, I'd like to have Wing FTP require a username and Password when the recipient clicks on the download URL. Is there anyway to set that up?

Yes, we will add a similar feature in the next release.

I see that this has been added in v4.4.6. Now, it defaults to 'undefined'.

Any chance you can put a check box next to that option to specifically enable the password option?

Or give a configuration option to default or require a password (or not)?

Simply jamming in the text 'undefined' is causing our users a lot of confusion, as many have taken 'undefined' to mean there isn't one . . . when in fact the password is indeed the text 'undefined'


Thanks!
Eric

Which web browser and how do you generate the web link? I have tested many web browsers, no such issue found.

I am using Chrome on a MAC. But I have also validated the issue on IE on Windows, and Chrome on Windows. Basically when uploading a fresh file, then right-clicking on it and checking the box "Enable Web Link", then AUTOMATICALLY the word 'undefined' in inserted into the Password field!

This is a real problem for us as our Engineering group is sending files out all day long and this is added steps / non-value added activity for them to have to clear out this field.

As it is stated in the interface this should be optional.

Help please!

I can email you a screen shot if needed -- I can't seem to cut / paste it into this form.

OK, it seems this issue only exists on the Linux version, and you just need to modify the file "webclient/main.html", and replace the line 1144:

if(resultArray[3] != "")

into:

if(resultArray[3] != null && resultArray[3] != "")

Thank you!

Will you be incorporating this change into the standard code base (i.e. the next version) so I don't have to manually fix this every time??

I appreciate it.

Yes, of course we will fix it in the next release, thanks!
