Frontend upload : group access right

[AlainR]

Hello.
I don't find the possibility to define group access right in categories to upload in Frontend. Is it really only possible to define user by user access ?
I work for a big structure and it's not imaginable to setup for each category and user.
Did I miss something ? I hope so...
Many thanks in advance and best regards.

Hi, yes, for now, only rights per group can be set, so rights for whole users need to be customized directly in the code

Hi. I saw that it is now possible to define a category access by group or user, very nice!
Would it be possible to define file sending rights in the same way and not only by users?

[Jan]

Hi, what do you mean with file sending exactly.

In Phoca Download, you can set acces rights for categories (per group or you can extend it for each user



In file, this can be done only for group:

Sorry, my translation was bad. I mean Upload rights : do you plan to develop the possibility to set right for groups and not for users only ?

[Jan]

Hi, there are no such plans, because mixing rights is mostly very confusing for users. There can come to a lot of conflicts and problems when users set some rights but forget to set another rights (users, groups). The users were selected as mostly the upload rights are assigned to specific users

I added it to feature request list, but really no idea when and if I will be able to take a look at it
