Server: Can I delete ""Get your own free account""Share URL?

Created on 23 Sep 2018  路  11Comments  路  Source: nextcloud/server

Hey, I don't like "Get your own free account" text in share URL, it very ugly. It like "ads".
Can I close this?
If not, please make a function to close this text. (next version)
These few words make my feelings about nextcloud much lower.

I use 14.0.0.0
thanks.

These few words make my feelings about nextcloud much lower.

You're not the only one. Please read this at the community pages of Nextcloud:

It鈥檚 tremendously rude and a ridiculous marketing trick. Really makes me sick and tired, I thought I left ownCloud for these kind of strange programming actions. Horrible. And an option in config.php is just discouragement policy. It should鈥檝e been an option on the admin page. Or better yet, it should鈥檝e been A QUESTION in the NC 14 update progress! It鈥檚 not even in the changelog.

It鈥檚 bizar. Besides, the advertisement itself is completely silly since Nextcloud is nowhere near an easy deploy possibility of their product - you still need to be a quite serious admin with server knowledge. So to think that most of your guests would be willing to do this, is silly to think in my opinion.

The option is not even on the production pages of the admin manual!!
So give me a break. Nextcloud is Googlifying. Ridiculous.

GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/11198 ("Get your own free account"), https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/9182 (Just a question // Feature request // Pretty Share URL), https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/10132 (Allow restoring of deleted user shares), https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/10965 (New "Create your free account.." message (Only Feedback)), and https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/7238 (Share still exists after source file gets deleted).

I seem to find the answer I want through the nextcloud bot, but I haven't tested it yet. If I test it successfully, I will close this issue.

Agree 100%

But I do not believe this can be changed on the snap instance.

edit: Thanks Daniel (kesselb) following worked for me.

/snap/nextcloud/current/bin# sudo nextcloud.occ config:system:set --type=bool --value=false simpleSignUpLink.shown
System config value simpleSignUpLink.shown set to boolean false

You can use occ to remove the link:

(check https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloud-snap/blob/master/README.md#included-cli-utilities how to use occ with snap)

something strange I have set
'simpleSignUpLink.shown' => false, in config.php but the message was there.
I needed to run
occ config:system:set --type=bool --value=false simpleSignUpLink.shown
using terminal to get it working .

Why was @Sx3 comment of three hours ago marked as spam?? That wasn鈥檛 spam! It was guidance. Don鈥檛 fume our frustration again please.

It's spam. You can have exactly that guidance if you click on my previous post. Please don't push such old threads without a good reason. It's just notification spam for everyone subscribed.
