Multiple adding shared folders

Submitted by Cab2fuz on Wed, 08/06/2014 - 14:42
Description: 
I'm selecting the shared folders from a big folder one by one. After every one I'm adding, I need to press again on "share folder", navigate to that big folder, scroll down and everything.. I'd really like to multiply choose them, like selecting 120 folders - making them all shared to everyone. The other way to do it just takes some much time.. Thanks!!

I had some sub-folders in my shared folder which I didn't want to share, as they contained stuff like private demos and review copies that I'm obliged not to release. I had to move these, when it would have been easier to select the main folder, and then deselect the sub-folders I don't want to share. Such options are usually a fairly basic part of any directory tool.

My soulseek client data was deleted again.
I'm destined again to add the folders one by one, while the adding folders window don't remember the recent location I've added from so I'll need to look for it every time I add a folder, and there's plenty to add.
I'm sorry if I sound grumpy. I am thankful for Soulseek and all it's done for me, and I'm also thankful that there's someone out there who listens to my suggestions.
I just want to know if anything could be done about it, before I re-add the folders again in the tangled way I've been doing it before, or maybe I should wait for the next update or something..

I love the idea!!Both adding selectively from a fodler and also DE-selecting a specified folder in the main shared folder.

I can't start to think how this could be done as it would require a separate view/tree list of your own files and/or a tickbox next to each folder in order to set the Share/Unshare feature...

Or at least thats how far it goes in my head!!

Agreed. We need a better way of choosing folders to share, as the current way (whilst it works well) can be cumbersome when trying to add many folders.
