Downloading files and folders from Linshare has several differences and issues: the objective would be to ensure that users experiment the same behaviour when downloading

  1. obtaining an archive or not
  2. grouped files/folders or not,
  3. content is downloaded or not (some files open in the browser)
  4. folders structure is not kept

For now:

  • downloading single file => file download is sent as is, except PDF files which are opened in the browser
  • downloading multiple files => each file download is sent as is
  • downloading a single folder => download is sent as compressed file (as ZIP)
  • downloading several folders => each folder download is sent as compressed file (as ZIP)
  • download folders archive do not contain subfolders that do not have files in it, which is really annoying when one wants to share eg. a structure template, without actual content in it
