FolderHost Release v26.6.2

Release Date: 2026-06-29 16:41:16 UTC

What's New

Added

• Config Migration: Added automatic config.yml migration system.
• SSL: Added SSL configuration to the default configuration file. You can enable it by setting ssl.enabled to true in the configuration file. There are 2 possible ways to use it. The first one is to use a self signed certificate. The second one is to use a let's encrypt certificate. If you don't have a domain or you don't want to use let's encrypt certificate just use the self signed certificate.

Changed

• Navigation bar design: The old one was looking weird and unconfortable for most of users. It was not compatible with devices that has low height. So I think the newer design is looking better now. If you have any other suggestions you can open a discussion for that.

  • New:

Security

• Login system: Limit max failed login attempts to 5 (Username will be blocked for 5 minutes after 5 failed login attempts).
