Phoca Forum

Hi,

1. when I do a Multiple-upload of files, the files do not have a file owner. So I dont have the possibilty to see those files at the frontend-fileoverview-window and edit them.
2. I wanna See all uploaded files from all users in the frontend-fileoverview-window. So that I can also delete files from other users. Also If my user-account was set at the Delete-Rights at the Backend-Options, I only see my uploaded Items in the frontend-list. Is there a way to change that?
3. Why are files, that I uploaded via Multiple-Upload, not sorted into my own user-folder in the "userupload"-folder but in the root-directionary? I cannot see, which user uploaded which file when everything is simply uploaded to "phocadownload"-root.

Hi, not sure if I understand you post correctly but seems like you upload the files in backend - but in backend there are not the same rules as in frontend.

When you upload in frontend, you are taken as standard frontend users which get ownership of the files, own folder, etc. Your files are uploaded to your folder.

When you upload in backend, there are not such options like in the frontend, in backend you are an administrator and files are not assigned to anybody and they are uploaded to folder which you select. In administration you can select where the files will be uploaded, where they will be added because you are taken as administrator and it is fully on you where you upload the files.

I do a multiple upload the the backend. files are uploaded and I can also see it in the file-overview in the backend but they dont have an owner. This leads to the problem that I cannot see the files in the frontend to edit them.

Hi, yes, in administration, ownership is not assigned. Such needs to be set when editing the file.

- so the way is to set it for each file
- or somehow customize the code, so each new file added to the system get a specific ownership

So in administration ownership is assigned when single upload but not with multiple upload? Because when I upload only one file, the user is set as mine.

Hi, no, in administration, the ownership is not set, even you upload with single upload or multiple upload - when you upload files - it is just upload - files are added to system when save in File edit or Multiple Add method - but there the ownership is not set.

Ok.

So another question: Is it possible to make a user having access to all "uploaded files" from all users and administration rights for all of them? So that the super-user can straight edit, delete or inactivate a file from another user?

Hi, yes, this is possible in administration but not in frontend. To administrate files of other users, you need to be logged in in administration.
