Errors

You cannot comment on this folder

Folder comment post refused — the folder is not publicly viewable to you.

You cannot comment on this folder

Same ACL idea as file comments: the folder is not viewable on the public folder page for this visitor (private / not owner).

Why this happens

assertFolderViewableOnPublicPage returns 403 before create. Public folder comments must also be enabled for posting to work at all.

Diagnose and fix

1. Owner: make the folder public / shareable as designed.

2. Visitor: use a public folder link while signed in if required.

3. Admin: Public folder comments on; Enable file comments / related toggles as needed.

4. Distinct from reply-depth rules and rate limits.
