Files premium by default

New uploads get the Premium file flag — guests/free users cannot download them. Existing files unchanged.

Settingtoggle.file_prem_only_default

Files premium by default

When on, new uploads are flagged premium (isPremium) so only Premium / Premium Pro (per product rules) can download them.

Where to find it

Admin → Settings → Files → Uploads → Files premium by default

Setting key: toggle.file_prem_only_default (defaults off)

How it works

Applies to new uploads only — not a global ban on downloading older free public files.

A file can be public (link/landing visible) and still premium-gated for the actual download. Combine carefully with Files public by default.

Common problems

Every new upload requires premium

This default was left on. Turn it off; fix flags on files that already uploaded if needed.
