Research direction
Start by finding the existing disable-file-downloads setting and the code path that handles folder downloads. Confirm how single-file downloads differ from whole-folder downloads, then update the setting behavior so folder downloads are blocked while individual file downloads remain available.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
What is your suggestion?
disable-file-downloadsprevents all forms of downloading- I would like to disable downloading of whole folders only but allow downloading of 1 file
Why do you want this feature?
My aim is to not allow whole folder downloads as it can lead to bad practices/security issues but downloading of files, 1 by 1 is acceptable as a convenience feature
Are there any workarounds to get this functionality today?
Yes, allow file downloads which also allows folder downloads
Are you interested in submitting a PR for this?
Unfortunately no as my javascript is subpar.
