The options screen allows you to customize Rightload to better fit your needs and enable additional features. It is devided into the server management tab, the general options, thumbnails options and advanced options. The server management tab is explained
in another thread.
General OptionsDefaultsThese options allow you to set the default values and actions for several common parts of Rightload. For example, you can select which tag is added to the URLs by default and what happens when a file exists on the server.
ASCII ExtensionsIf you have set your transfer type to the recommended value of "Auto", all files with one of these extensions will be transferred in ASCII mode while all other files are transferred as binary files.
Master PasswordThe master passwort encrypts your servers' login information, so nobody can steal your logins, even with access to your config.xml. Setting this is especially recommended for shared computers.
UpdatesRightload is able to automatically check our website for updates, and notify you if there is a new version available. If you have privacy concerns about Rightload connecting to our website (even though only your version number is transmitted to us), you can disable this feature here.
Thumbnails OptionsGeneralHere you can set whether Rightload should ask you about creating thumbnails and how large the thumbnails should be at most. The actual size will depend on the original image's aspect ratio.
AdvancedIf you want your thumbnails to have a border or contain the dimensions of the original image, you can enable these features here. You can also define how high the quality (i.e. how large the file size) of the thumbnail should be.
Naming SchemeSimilar to URL masks, the thumbnail naming scheme lets you customize the file names of your thumbnails. There are two variables you can use here - $file and $ext. $file will be replaced by the filename (without extension), $ext will be replaced by the extension.
You can also select one of the two pre-defined schemes.
Advanced OptionsContext MenuWith these two options you can define whether Rightload should be shown in the Windows Explorer's context menu and if you want the option to upload to custom subfolders from the context menu to be shown.
BehaviourThese options let you change the way Rightload behaves in different cases. For example, by enabling the option to minimize during uploads and the options to auto-close and copy all URLs to the clipboard, you can upload files without seeing Rightload at all.
LoggingThis option should only be enabled if you experience problems and want to send us a log file. You can find the created log files by clicking "Help" -> "Open Temp Directory".
Configuration DirIf you do not want to save your configuration files in AppData, you can set an alternative directory here.
