... and avoid displaying the catalog page if only one ZIM file.

Not sure anymore this is a good idea. Closing it for now

In fact IMO we need that for KaiOS and we probably also need to remove the human_id part of the URL in case of only one ZIM file.

I'm not sure about this. We tell the browser to cache indefinitely the content we send. This work well because we have a "unique" content per url. If we remove the human_id from the url, we may end with different contents (because different zims) using the same url.

Saying that, we have the same issue with the nodatealias feature of kiwix-serve.

@mgautierfr yes, not sure this is a problem or not. You see the problem here https://en.wikimed.kaios.kiwix.org
