Server: No option to hide 'Add to a project' sharing feature

Created on 7 Aug 2019  路  6Comments  路  Source: nextcloud/server

  • [ ] Android @tobiasKaminsky
  • [ ] Desktop @camilasan
  • [ ] iOS @marinofaggiana
  • [ ] Server @nextcloud/server-triage

Steps to reproduce

  1. There is no option to disable 'add to a project' sharing capability
  2. 'Add to a project' always stays there for users confusing them as it's not straight forward how to create a new project

Expected behaviour

There should be an option in the admin area to completely disable this new feature.

Server configuration

Operating system: Linux x64

Web server: nginx

Database: mysql

PHP version: 7.1

Nextcloud version: 16.0.3

The only solution I've found so far is this: https://help.nextcloud.com/t/how-to-disable-add-to-a-project-solved-by-dirty-workaround/54737/2

But it's a dirty workaround and also considering that there are many options in file sharing, this should be a trivial option to implement.

Server:

  • needs to expose a capability
  • admin setting to toggle it

The admin setting to toggle it should be like this:

  • Should be in Admin setting and it would disable it globally and on all clients.
  • Either in "Basic settings" or "Sharing" (I assume "Basic settings" is more fitting?)
  • Enabled by default of course
  • Section:

Projects
Connect items to a project to make them easier to find. Available in supported apps like Files, Talk, Deck and more.

  • [x] Enable projects

Do we have some promo site about projects @jospoortvliet? We could link that or write some more there.

Push! Iam very thankful for the continous development but this feature left 130 Users in my Domain clueless ...

@krayzie85 the best way to push is to become a customer :+1:

This feature is really needed, thanks!
