 * … and the second issue is that whilst I would like to give my users the ability
   to add/edit individual files, I want to remove ‘add subdirectory’ ability (the
   big ‘+ NEW’ link in the ‘type’ column) because I know my users will instinctively
   click that instead of the ‘add files’ button. Believe me, I know they will! Also
   I don’t need to create sub-directories.

 * You can just hide that table row with custom css.

 * Yes, that was going to be my next option. Just wondered if I was missing a shortcode.
   
   Cheers 🙂

 * Hi Thom – sorry for this but I’m struggling to work out what the CSS is for that
   specific table row to hide. I think the row is ‘row-ssfa-create-dir’ but how 
   would I construct the specific CSS to hide this row in every table?

 * BTW, I even tried JS but this doesn’t work:
    `$('#ssfa-table.row-ssfa-create-
   dir').hide();`
