Support for jDownloads 3 has been ended
Since 17 August 2023 Joomla.org has discontinued support for Joomla 3.x. Therefore, we will no longer offer official support for our Joomla 3 jDownloads version 3.9.x from January 2024.
Please update your website to the latest Joomla version (Joomla 4 or Joomla 5) as soon as possible. Afterwards, please update jDownloads to the latest published version. The longer you delay, the more difficult the upgrade process for your website is likely to be.

Hi
There are two names associated with a Download:  the name of the creator of the Download; and the Author of the Download.   Thses are kept separate as the person who creates the upload may not be the person who authored the principle work in the download.  The author could for example be the name of a composer.  So I think it is useful to keep that distinction.

I suspect you were asking that the user who is doing the uploading should automatically become the Creator if no name is supplied.

Hope this helps

Colin
