Delete other users files from the frontend

Post by miroen »

Hello,

Is it possible to configure Phoca Download (PD) so other users can delete (or unpublish) files that someone else has uploaded?
The thing is I uploaded a number of files when we started using PD as a superuser.
Now one of my administrators wants to replace one of those files with a newer version, he can upload the new one but is not able to even see the old version, so let alone he can delete or unpublish that file.
I've switched on userfolders, could that be the cause?

kind regards,
Jeroen

Hi, you can do this in administration, everyone who has rights to access administration. In frontend only users who have downloaded the file can manage it.

Hello ,

I know this is an old topic but I still get the request that users from the same group want the be able to delete (or at least unpublish) files from other users within the same usergroup. Is this something you might be able to build?

With kind regards,
Jeroen

Hi, it is in long term feature request list, but for now because of time issues I really cannot say when and if I will be able to take a look at it soon :-(
