How can I AUTOMATICALY limit access to file to an user?

Post by MoonDragon » Wed Jul 30, 2014 11:35 am

Hi all,

I am using the Module 'Simple File Upload' and I would like to know how I can limit the access of a file uploaded by a registered user A to this last only.

At the moment, if other users know or guess the path of the registered/logged in user A's file for example then they can view and download it : also, I would like to prevent this.

Thanks in advance for your help.

The problem with Phoca is that it cannot automatically create a directory as name the username of an user that has just registered.
