 * I downloaded, installed and activated WP-FileManager v1.3.0 on my WP 3.5.1 installation.
   
   After setting the rights under Configuration to Create File Create Folder Allow
   Rename Allow Upload Allow Delete Allow Edit
 * I was not allowed to rename a templatefile that I created myself and uploaded
   earlier with a FTP-Client (FileZilla 3.6.0.2).
    Please look into it if possible
   and make this great plugin work again.

 * Also tested WP-FM 1.3.0 on a clean install of WP 3.5 with the same results, renaming
   the template file (test.php) doesn’t work.
    This time all permission settings
   were activated first.

 * Same results for WP-FM 1.3.0 on a clean install of WP 3.4.2, renaming the template
   file (test.php) doesn’t work.
 * This time using the Twenty Eleven theme instead of the earlier used Twenty Twelve
   theme, and again with all settings activated first.
