Pre-download wait
Optional /prep interstitial (toggle.efp). Landing countdown is separate (ul2_countdn_sec_*). Direct-download skips both.
Pre-download wait
Timers and interstitials before you can mint a download link.
Where to find it
Interstitial: /prep/{fileId} when Pre-download page is on. Countdown on the landing /{fileId}.
How it works
Prep (toggle.efp; unset = off) redirects the file URL to /prep/.... Continue to download opens the landing with ?from_prep=1. If efp is off, /prep redirects straight to the landing.
Countdown on the landing uses per-tier ul2_countdn_sec_* (defaults often anon 20, reg 10, premium 0). It restarts on every page load. Grant without a completed wait → 403/429. Direct-download Premium/Pro skips prep and countdown.
Common problems
Refresh restarted the timer
Countdown restarts from a new landing load for that viewer.
Confused prep with countdown
Prep is the interstitial; countdown is on the landing after Continue.
