Feature suggestion: More customizations for public page #163

Hi,

I found Fireshare from this Reddit thread. I love that you had a need and decided to implement a great solution! I was wondering if the public video landing pages (i.e., unauthenticated mode) could (optionally) be made slightly cleaner.

I was thinking specifically that it would be nice to hide the entire sidebar, which would prevent navigation to the public videos feed and the login page. That way, the content is front and center, and the user is less likely to get "lost" (without changing the URL, of course). I think this would also more closely align with Streamable.

For self-hosted services, I also try to avoid any external links, like the one to the Fireshare GitHub page. Of course, I totally understand wanting to promote your work, so I'd understand if you didn't want to provide an option for hiding that link.

Thanks for the great service!

This is not a bad suggestion. I could probably add a configurable setting for hiding the sidebar when viewing a /w/ page link.

And you are correct, I don't plan on removing the project related links in the sidebar because, like you said, it is a simple way to promote my work and make it easy for others who come across a fireshare instance to be directed directly to the project to learn about it.

I would love to see more customization options. If I could use this commercially to show my stream branding and colors that would be perfect

@Kuvwert If I had a made this a commercial focused product with paid licensing then that would have been on the table.
