Install on Apache, in a Centos 7 server, pydio version pydio-6.0.8-1.src.rpm We want to use this server to store images, pictures etc, which we can then use in forums, blogs etc. I have the following issue. I need to provide my coworkers with a share link, which they can copy and include in a thread in a forum or in general in the web. We do not need the download code, we need a direct link to the file we have uploaded. As it works now, a file uploaded generates an HTML Embed Code, of this form: `Download 07_604.jpg` This is the download link, but that is NOT what I need. What I want to see there is just: `https://xxx.yyy.org/pydio_public/4d4645.php?dl=true&ct=true&file=/7e2eecf7b8/07_604.jpg` In other words a direct link which works when entered anywhere on the internet. I had search the knowledge base in here and I came up with this thread. We tried modifying the file as suggested, however doesn’t seem to work. [https://pydio.com/forum/f/topic/generating-direct-download-share-link/](https://pydio.com/forum/f/topic/generating-direct-download-share-link/) Can someone please provide me with the file that needs to be changed and what the changes should be, in order to get the result I am looking for? Many thanks for your attention, A Pydio newbie! ---

Hi, i would advise you to install pydio 8, because the sharing links have been changed you can download it [here](https://pydio.com/en/get-pydio) and put it on your webserver otherwise you can also follow this [guide](https://pydio.com/en/docs/v8/edcentosrhel-7-systems) on how to install pydio on Centos. ---
