Description

I run two Unraid servers, the addtion of a manifest in 7.2.0 is great since I can now create native app shortcuts on mobile, however they will all get the same name Unraid.

I have edited the name in the manifest and prefixed the server name so I can create two different app shortcuts so that instead of Unraid it will be Tower Unraid

I noticed there was some progress in creating a dynamic manifest at https://github.com/unraid/webgui/commit/10e9ffaa99fd6db1a972eb9c67846f17d49132c6
I wonder if this can be added in the future automatically I will probably just use a sed script to do this upon boot, but I think other users will find it nice

Thanks

Research direction

Read the manifest introduced in 7.2.0 and compare it with commit 10e9ffaa99fd6db1a972eb9c67846f17d49132c6. Trace where the server name is available for the manifest, then verify that generated mobile shortcuts receive a unique prefixed name without requiring a boot-time sed script.
