Out of box access rights

Post by HekaMultimedia »

Greetings,

Firstly, thanks for such a wonderful component. This is my first time using Phoca components. I am running Joomla 3.3.1 and installed Phoca Downloads 3.0.5. Im having problems with access rights. Im using the component out of the box and I created a menu item for the component. I added a file. Right now, unregistered users can download the file. My goal is to have the category and files visible to everyone, but only members of a user group should be able to actually download them. As of now, even when not logged into the site, I am able to download the file. Please advise and thanks in advance!

Hi, see the file edit in administration, there you can set access rights e.g. for registered and set that the file will be visible. The category should stay public.

Now if public user will come to the site, he/she can see the files but when clicking on download button, the site will require login.
