    Dear,

    I setup "requireAuthentication": false, in settings.json to Make Documents Public. (https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/etherpad/)

    but, not working.
    if I uninstall cloudron plugin at plugin manager, then working.

    but, cloudron plugin installed again automatically.

    would you please check ?

    Best Regards,

    I just tried this and it seems to work as expected. Is it possible that you have not restarted the app after changing the configuration file?

    To document public,
    I need uninstall cloudron plugin, then work.
    but, when app restart, the cloudron plugin installed automatically.
    then back to login require again.

    @freetommy as far as I can reproduce, if the config file looks something like:

    {
      "requireAuthentication": false,
      "ep_cloudron": {
        "admins": [
          "yourusername"
        ]
      }
    }
    

    Then direct links via https://pad.example.com/p/foobar will be publicly accessible.

    @nebulon
    Oh. Thanks you. I didn't know direct link that is public already.
    I thought this page would appear instead login page. Is this setting possible ?

    That actually seems like a bug that it asks for authentication . Given that one can access https://pad.example.com/p/anyrandompadname and it doesn't authenticate aynway.

    I created https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/etherpad-lite-app/-/issues/17 to fix the plugin.

    The latest version has fixed a few issues related login session and shows now the default welcome screen if requireAuthentication is false
    I have added a login button on the top right though for users to authenticate and thus have a list of their own pads

    so there's no way to have authentication required and still be able to share a document publicly without having the viewer to sign in?
