Clicking where, in the files list? In the navigation?

[szaimen]

Apparently @Rello can reproduce this as well.

Possibly caused by #38441?

[Rello]

yes. FF; c.n.c;
2 issues here - see the video:

Navigation bar link not working

• click on a favorite folder underneath the "Favorites" navigation item => nothing happnes

JFTR: Happens here as well with a server I just upgraded from NC 26.0.3 to NC 27.0.0. It does not matter which browser I use and I have to explain nearly 40 users that the favorites are not usable any longer until this I fixed. Wasn't there a E2E test to make sure that works before releasing a new version?

Favorites are still usable. Workaround:

• Click ON Favorites, (not on the expand [>]/[v] button):

• the Favorites are listed in main window, where you can click and open them.

Thanks for the hint - I also found that out meanwhile ;-)

Maybe I'll add some custom CSS as a tempory fix to hide the favorite list on the left and the expand button until a fix is provided.

Cc @nextcloud/server-frontend should we try to fix this for 27.0.1?

Came her just to report this issue on mine as well. Latest NC version in docker. I click any favoring in the menu and the url in the location bar changes, but the page itself doesn't do anything. I have to press the enter button after clicking it so it actually navigates to that page.

Fixed with #39301

[samhonarvar]

It seems like this was fixed in July 14, I'm running 27.1.2 and this issue is still happening for me.

[CuriousHummingbird]

Same here with 27.1.3. the Bug ist still there... Our additional problem is, that the workaround above does not work if you use the favorites for copying and moving files within the NextCloud folders in the popup windows. The folder view is loading and does not show any results after the first click on any favorites Folder in the popup window, when using the existing favorites.

Following up on this, on Nextcloud Hub 8 (29.0.5) with all apps up to date, the links in my favorites no longer work, and instead I get an error "No Favorites Yet".

If I navigate to my root, and go to my folder, I can see all my contents:

If I click the link in the favorites on the sidebar, I get the following:

This was working as recently as last week, and this is the same for all favorites. Speculating, can it not find the path because the root of "Favorites" isn't tracing properly to the actual root path of the share?

Same here! Also 29.0.5 and the Favorite menu entry seems to filter the path:

instead of being a link to a normal folder.
