Navigating the Main User Interface
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
By default, the ownCloud Web interface opens to your Files page.
|
|
Once you have accessed the ownCloud Server main web interface you can add files,
|
|
remove files, and make changes based on the access privileges set by you
|
|
(if you are administering the server) or by your server administrator.

|
|
open a dropdown menu to navigate to your various available apps.
|
|
|
|
* **Apps Information** field: Located in the left sidebar, this provides
|
|
filters and tasks associated with your selected app. For example, when you
|
|
are using the Files apps you have a special set of filters for quickly
|
|
finding your files, such as files that have been shared with you, and files
|
|
that you have shared with others. You'll see different items for other apps.
|
|
|
|
* **Application View**: The main central field in the ownCloud user interface.
|
|
This field displays the contents or user features of your selected app.
|
|
|
|
* **Navigation Bar**: Located over the main viewing window (the Application
|
|

|
|
the only Web browsers that support drag-and-drop folders are Chrome and
|
|
Chromium.
|
|
|
|
* **Upload** button: Located next to the ``New`` button in the
|
|
Navigation Bar, the ``Upload`` button opens a file picker for
