[Owncloud] Public folder

[Gunnar Groetschel]

Yes, that would be another feature request. Why not having a flag in the database 'clientsync: yes/no'
The user could decide for each folder/file, if it should be synced or not.

The symlinks are nice and I already thought about it, but I don't like to improve the system with command line tasks. It is much better to use the backend to set all properties.

I will take a look into application development and see if I can create a symlink for all known users and exclude it from clientsync, because we hardly need it and in my opinion it is worth for all to have it.

Best regards
Gunnar

Betreff: Re: [Owncloud] Public folder

interesting idea, but following your vision, should the public folder be visible in the Files section ?
Because, if yes, how can you deny the client from auto-syncing that folder too ?

I think you can partially have a public folder shared by users by using symlinks, but I cannot test that.

Hi list

We are looking for a solution to have something like a Public Folder, in which all registered user can read/write/browse, but that is not automatically downloaded by the client (yes, we sync / path with client to get the dropbox experience).

Has anybody of you ever seen something like this in owncloud?

Best regards
Gunnar
