fences

folder portal

Hi,

 

I'm new at fences, and when I installed the fences software, I'v setup the folder portal.

 

However, when I setup new folder portal, I can't see any file in the fence, I just see the empty older portal with its headline.

 

Do you know what's the problem ? Is it setting issue ?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need to know few things

1) Is this portal fences is linking to directories on a network drive or offline/cloud drive.

2) Fences version you have installed.

Thanks

Hi,

 

Thank you for your answer.

 

I installed the latest version 3 days ago (ver. 3.9.0.11).

 

I tried to check with my downloads folder and with a dropbox folder, and even with new folder which I created just for this on my desktop.

 

The wired thing is that I tried it on 3 different PC's, one at my home, one at my office an on my Surface 7 pro. It doesn't work on any of them.

 

Just to let you know, I'm in my 30 days trial version.

 

Hope you can solve this matter for my, because this is the main purpose which got me to install Fences in the first place.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

If you, temporarily, set your PC language to English, does it then work?

Hi,

 

OK. It warks when I change to ENGLISH.

 

Now what ?

 

I want my system to wark on my language.

Just to be clear.  If you create them in English, keep them there, switch back to your primary language, do the Folder portals still show the files in them?

No.

When I switch back to Hebrew, the Folder Portal doesn't show anything. Back to the "problem" mode.

Hello again,

Since now it is a known bug and seem it will be work on and should be solved when Fences get it next update. For now, as a temporary solution is to run your system in English or any other language that works.

Thank you,

Hello again.

I wanted to ask if you had a chance to fix the bug, so I can use Fences now with my native language.

Hi,

 

I want to ask if now, at Fences 4 I can use the Fences with RTL languages (like Hebrew) ?
