Access windows shares via a Moodle web interface.
Configuring shares is done by adding them to a text area field (easier to edit, etc). This text area field is progressively enhanced in to a YUI3 table as per the following screen shot.

Bump... bump...... Please
Download the latest master branch via git as there is a *possible* fix included for your Ubuntu 16.04 (PHP7) issue:

Guy... Most sincere apologies. For some reason I was not subscribed this forum and did not get the posts emailed. I am sorry.
Downloaded from Github. Deleted the old code and replaced with the updated stuff.
Hit the home page and it updated the database. Seems to be working..
Many many thanks.
Without seeming to be ungrateful... Just a small usuability thing. When using FF the login screen seems to be at the top-left of the window.
And I cannot seem to reproduce it .. but when I deleted the old code.. I had some 70 Gig of files in sub direcotories, that appear to be what had been downloaded. I will keep an eye on that and post if I notice it again...
Once again .. Thank you.

The fixed shares seem to come up fine... but when I try to access my Home directory (presumably dynamic) .. it comes up with this error
Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: print_header() can not be used any more. Please use $PAGE methods instead.
More information about this error
When accessing the home directory this message appears.
Sorry, you cannot view your homedirectory online
Error Message: No home directory specified in ldap for this user
Any ideas?
Cheers
Colin

Have you had any opportunity to take a look at this issue. I know you are extremely busy and appreciate that this is not your full time. job.
I have staff and students really desperate to access their files from home.
Hope you are well.

Sadly, to make the plugin pass all Moodle's coding style checks I'd have to do some significant rewriting which is why you can only get it from github.
All good here too... many thanks
