+> [!CAUTION]
+> If you have indexing rules -- such as [maxWatchers](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/blob/39514169f17ed9586d587dd496257588ded6e532/frontend/public/config.generated.yaml#L30), [neverWatchPaths](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/blob/39514169f17ed9586d587dd496257588ded6e532/frontend/public/config.generated.yaml#L31C9-L31C24), [exclude](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/blob/39514169f17ed9586d587dd496257588ded6e532/frontend/public/config.generated.yaml#L32C9-L32C16) rules, [include](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/blob/39514169f17ed9586d587dd496257588ded6e532/frontend/public/config.generated.yaml#L43) rules, see [the migration guide](https://filebrowserquantum.com/en/docs/user-guides/general-configuration/exclusion-rules/) for help.
+
+ **New Features**:
+ - Playback Queue for media -- thanks @Kurami32 #1339
+ - Ctrl+b Shortcut to toggle sidebar, open settings, search #1172
+ - Add a "select all" toggle in the menu #974
+ - Save on exit text editor -- thanks @srini-abhiram #1334 #1241
+ - Disabled indexing for subfolders but allow browsing #783
+ - Added more granular create/upload, delete, and download (includes viewing content) permission #1200 #1199
+ - Upload settings can be adjusted directly in the upload prompt
+ - Added paste confirmation prompt when using copy/paste keyboard shortcuts.
+ - Updated shares
+   - `disableDownload` to disable download and (content viewing).
+   - `allowReplacements` to share permission -- prohibits replacing files on conflict #661
+   - normal shares can create/upload files if given permission
+
+ **Notes**:
+ - Optimized font and icon loading.
+ - the next/previous buttons will follow media queue order if playback mode has a queue.
+ - All new exclude rules -- see [full config example](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/wiki/Full-Config-Example)
+ - The order of sources will strictly match order in config.yaml. Default landing page is root first source unless otherwise configured in profile settings.
+ - Uploading changes #1371
+   - Chunked uploading can no longer be explicitly disabled, defaults to 5MB chunks
+   - Automatic chunked/non-chunked uploads based on size. If an item exceeds the chunk size, chunked uploading will occur. If its less than chunk size, no chunked upload.
+   - To "disable" chunked upload, you an set your chunk size very large -- 0 chunk size will be reset to 5MB.
+
+ **BugFixes**:
+ - Remember the previous location after closing a preview #1336
+ - fixed issue related to multi-config parsing #1267
+ - Cannot save text files, missing button #1326 #1367
+ - Files are being overwritten and/or content disappears #1312
+ - moving between items using next/previous will reset the req and show a responsive loading spinner -- fixing several state related issues.
+ - access management: child folders accessible stopped showing up #1332
+ - Make source inaccessible if directory does not exist rather than exiting on start #1264
+ - HTTP Proxy environment gets ignored since version v0.8.6-beta #1324
+ - album artwork preview not showing on shares
+ - fixed OIDC logout causing a loop #995 #1361
+ - fixed checksum failure #1372
+ - Copy, paste, cut shortcuts don't work and make the UI unusable #1375
+
+## v0.8.8-beta
+
+ **New Features**:
+ - Ability to split configuration files via yaml anchoring #1267
+   - see [How to: Use multiple config files](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/wiki/How-to:-Use-multiple-config-files)
+ - added [Init Script Help wiki](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/wiki/Init-Script-Help) to examples how you can bootstrap filebrowser quantum programatically
+ - Add capability to edit files permissions #813
+   - see updated full config for help using `server.filesystem`
+ - better copy/move prompt "in progress" indicator
+ - better login error message feedback
+ - Add capability to disable certain video previews at server level. See full config for help.
+ - Added ability to play media in same folder sequentially or shuffled.
+ - upload/upload only share links. #661
+ - Default landing directory if no other redirect is found (set profile settings) #781
+ - share download limit feature can apply per user -- and disables anonymous download when enabled.
+ - Docker health check #1292
+ - embedded subtitle support is now **disabled** by default, can be enabled via `integrations.media.extractEmbeddedSubtitles`. Per share configuration is also possible via `extractEmbeddedSubtitles` toggle. This change is because reading subtitles requires processing the entire file, and multi GB video files can take 10-20 seconds.
+
+ **Notes**:
+ - Some standardized path format changes for access rules to ensure the rules apply. A migration check happens on startup, all rules should still be in effect without any issues, but double check.
+ - moved `server.debugMedia` to `integrations.media.debug`
+ - optimized thumbnail generation workflow
+   - more concurrency changes for video thumbnails (now half of the numImageProcessors config)
+   - 15s timeout added to preview api
+   - preview operations are cancelled if api request is terminated.
+   - reduced io overhead for video previews
+   - you can now disable individual video file previews system wide at server config level (all enabled by default)
+
+ **BugFixes**:
+ - video plyr dark mode style issue where buttons are black instead of white
+ - error when running without a config file #1280
+ - Issue persist in 0.8.7 with Access Management #1282
+ - all static resources go through /public/static url to fix logout loop #995
+ - "realtime" Permission of API keys is not working #1141
+ - "Path not found" when trying to share a file or folder inside a sub-directory #1139
+ - logout path redirect not working
+ - 2FA secret error #1305
+ - console errors during login/logout
+ - fix scoped user share creation issue #1309
+ - share close button and navigation issues.
+ - OnlyOffice source not found when opening shared file #1285
+ - user scoped onlyoffice error saving files with Onlyoffice #1068
+

+FileBrowser Quantum provides an easy way to access and manage your files from the web. It has a modern responsive interface that has many advanced features to manage users, access, sharing, and file preview and editing.

 This version is called "Quantum" because it packs tons of advanced features into a tiny easy to run file. Unlike the majority of alternative options, FileBrowser Quantum is simple to install and easy to configure.

 The goal for this repo is to become the best open-source self-hosted file browsing application that exists -- **all for free**. This repo will always be free and open-source.
