only uploader can view-edit-delete - 2010/08/23 23:16 Thank you very much for a great tool I am a first time user and can say that I find it pretty straight-forward to set up and use

I was checking the configuration options under the "Choices" tab to find something like "Only the uploader can view-edit-delete the file" (ofc the administrator should too) but couldn't find anything of the sort. I saw the "update" and "delete" options but there was nothing about "view", maybe because everyone can see all the files by default, I guess.

Unless there is an option only for the uploader to view-edit and delete his files, am I left only with the option to create separate rules for each and every user and file manually? (would really like to avoid that since the user and file count is great)

Thank you very much for your time and efforts

Keep up the good work!

Re:only uploader can view-edit-delete - 2010/08/24 04:59 I'm not totally sure if I understand what you are looking for:

if you want to only the respective submitter seeing their stuff
- See_Containers_no_download / See_Files_no_download would need to be disabled in config
- a separate group would need to be created for each submitter
- each submitter would require their own containers with 'his' group assigned for upload, edit etc

Re:only uploader can view-edit-delete - 2010/08/24 11:46 Thank you very much for your reply,
yes I am talking about only the submitter having view-edit-delete rights on the files he/she uploads.

Is there a way to do this automatically?

As I understand there is already an Allow_User_Delete and a Allow_User_Edit option which allows only the submitter to either delete/update their files. Why is "View" so much different

Re:only uploader can view-edit-delete - 2010/08/24 13:38 automation while possible would require custom development. you could contact Martin via the contact us link on the left and ask for a quote

Re:only uploader can view-edit-delete - 2010/08/30 23:11 It's hard to understand the reason for having a file repository where only the submitter of a file can see it! Why have a repository at all in that case?

You can have a container for each user, and the user can be given all access rights to that particular container, and others could be denied all rights.
