[Solved] Share to anyone with a link doesn't work

When I’m trying to share folder or a file to “anyone with a link” I can’t see that option

Also in the past I think there was “share” button, which is not anymore available

According to documentation this should solve the problem, but I tried to set it in all configurations, which change nothing

I also read that some people solved the problem by turning off uBlock Origin, so I tried without any ADBlocker in Brave and Firefox - didn’t help

I’ve read that socialsharing_email 1.0.5 kills public sharing by link - but if it’s a plugin, then I don’t see it installed on my instance

I tried to turn on and off “Share by email” app installed by default - didn’t help

I tried to install “Configurable share links” as an experiment - it didn’t help

I use Docker based Nextcloud 30.0.1 on Ubuntu 24.04

Any help would be appreciated :slight_smile:

Maybe it is disabled in global settings.

https://cloud.server.tld/settings/admin/sharing

It is enabled in global settings. I tried to disable and reenable it. Also tried to switch the following “allow public uploads”, “always ask for password”, etc. That changes nothing on my NC

Solved elsewhere
The files are stored on SMB drive so until you’ll enable sharing for that External storage, you won’t be able to share any files from it to anyone else than NC user
