Sharing PDF files, setting them as custom and hiding downloads will result in the inability to view PDF files

Other file sharing formats are normal, but PDF files have a hidden nature and cannot be viewed when downloaded


What you see here is only for viewing and has become customized

Then select this hidden download option

Afterwards, it will result in the inability to view PDF documents

Could you please provide the screenshots in english language. I would assume that most users cannot read what has written there.

I can confirm that pdf files cannot be viewed anymore when “Hide download” is checked. Instead, the following message is shown: " To view a shared PDF file, the download needs to be allowed for this file share". Viewing pdf files while downloads are prevented used to be possible until very recently.

Is it enough to report this here or should I also open a Github ticket?

EDIT: After unchecking “Hide download”, saving, checking “Hide download”, and saving again, the pdf file seems to be viewable now.

I think it is the change with Nextcloud 31.
