add filter to category contents page? & edit upload rights

Post by tomdowler »

Hi all

I'm new to phoca download and had two major questions at this point.

1) on the user upload page there is, by default, a filter at the top of the page to restrict results by keyword, section & category, or to order by id, title, author, etc.

Is it possible to add something similar to the category contents page to filter the documents within that category by author, license, keyword, etc?


2) the category upload rights options includes "nobody", "all registered" and individual logons. Is it possible to add to this list the other standard joomla access levels like author, publisher, etc?

also, one more question while I'm here.

Is there a relatively easy way to hack phoca downloads to change some of the file attribute fields?

For example, the "author" and "author url" fields are useless to me, but I could really use a "product" field and a "document type" field - is there an easy way to change the field names so that wherever they appear in the front or back end the name is different?

Hi,

1) you can only change the ordering in parameters, but for now there is no select box or other solution which can be used in frontend :-(

2) the ACL is: registered or specific users. There will be new ACL because of 1.6 (Joomla!) but for now there is not planned any other solution.

3) there is no such option and I don't know any solution how to do it :-(
