Hi!
In Nextcloud 29 when you share a folder or a file with someone else, the person you shared it with, is getting the files shown under “All Files” in an seperate folder named “Shared”, and in there, there are the shared files, which the user can move out of it. In Nextcloud 28 the user just gets the files displayed under “All Files” and there is no such “Shared” folder. Is there a possibility to disable that the files are being laid in that folder by default, and get shown directly under “All Files” without the user having to move them out of the folder?
there used to be share_folder parameter that you can add/adjust in your Nextcloud’s config.php
Whilst you can’t remove the folder, as it stores shares from other users with you, you can hide it, ie point it to a name starting with . (.shared) to make it a hidden folder
In this video the person shows that this value can be set in the web ui. Is that natively implemented and just got removed since NC25 or is that a plugin? Can’t find that field in my cloud.
Of course, it could also be an app or customization that tab.digital added exclusively to their service, or it could actually have been a standard feature that was removed, which would be a shame because I think it would actually be a nice feature to have.
