Files showing as private to all members

Having an issue with the files mod and hoping someone could help. I have the files mod installed on a site and have created the categories and uploaded some files. I have set the files to be available to members. When a member logs in and tries to download the files they all show as private even though the correct access has been granted to "member" in the dropdown when uploading the file. I have made sure the clients account has been approved and is an actual member and also checked all membership categories to allow file downloads... Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.. I am running the lates version dolphin 7.1.4

Sorry, I can't reproduce the problem on demo.boonex.com

Oh. Guess one us should have mentioned this.

I fixed the issue for him.

AlexT. You may want to look into this as i believe it is a bug in dolphin.

To reproduce the problem. Do the following.

Edit the privacy groups. administration/advanced_settings.php then privacy groups.

Uncheck all groups except the 'Members' group.

Now create some folders in the files area and upload some files. You will now see the problem. The folders are attempting to default to public, but because the public privacy group is not available it shows as a private folder.

It seams dolphin is expecting the public privacy group to be enabled and will not fall back to the members group or any other group if the one the files module normally defaults to is not enabled.

Yes, it's supposed to have 'Public' privacy always enabled, if it is disabled (in favour of 'Members' group) then run the following query to reset default values to 'Members' privacy group.

UPDATE `sys_privacy_actions` SET `default_group` = 4 WHERE `default_group` = 3;

I hope it helps

I have reported on this problem as well, a long time back.  Boonex ignored me on it and dismissed me.  I told them it could be repeated.
