• Hi All,
  
  Here is how were are thinking of implementing this idea:
  
  - A GUI interface in Filr administration page(placement TBD - Under Shares or Share and Comment Settings) for Filr administrator to set the default number of days for share expiry
  - The range for default expiry setting MUST BE between 1 and 365 days
  - When a Filr user share a file/folder, the share expiry should default to "days" and Administrator defined default expiry number of days should be pre-populated
  - Any change made to this by Filr administrator is applicable only to the file(s)/folder(s) shared/reshared post the change by Administrator and thus doesn't change the expiry date of existing shares
  - The "NEVER" setting SHOULD NOT be an option for the Filr user in share expiry setting
  - Allow Administrator to make the default value as the maximum value thereby preventing users from setting number of days beyond the configured value (Optional)
  - A Filr user should be able modify the default value of number of days when sharing a file/folder
  
  Please share your feedback on these and let know if we are missing anything!

• Thanks for all your idea and inputs on this!
  
  We have got main part of this implemented and released as part of Filr 3.4 (which was released few hours back)
  
  Feel free to put in a new idea for anything that we may have missed from this idea.
  
  Regards,
  Dev
