Registered users can publish items in the site. I want to activate and file upload field for them, but i don't want they can see other users files (now they see userlist in the form). Can be done this? (this is suggestion for future feature too).

I use FC 1.5.4 & Joomla 1.5.25

This is already implemented if you have FLEXIaccess, but you can force to be limited to the owner (uploader)

-- In file administrator/components/com_flexicontent/models/filemanager.php

Replace line:
$CanViewAllFiles = ($user->gid < 25) ? FAccess::checkComponentAccess('com_flexicontent', 'viewallfiles', 'users', $user->gmid) : 1;

with:
$user =& JFactory::getUser();
$CanViewAllFiles = ($user->usertype == "Super Administrator") || ($user->usertype == "Administrator);

This way, the $CanViewAllFiles will be zeroed for all non-administrator users, and the file list will display only the user uploaded files.

NOTE: this is a core hack, PLEASE make a special file fc_upgrade.txt, to take note to reapply hack if you upgrade.

Usually, i don't POST or recommend hacks

Regards

Hmmm, nothing happen with this modification. Am i wrong somewhere?

When i make changes i continue to see userlist in "Select Uploader" and can see other users files.

Are you logged as admin?

An administrator will see all

I tested with admin user and normal (registered) and there is no difference.

I will test again now step by step (to be 101% sure)
