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.

Is it possible to restrict users from adding files to the Uncategorized directory? in other words, force them to chose one of the categories already established.

jDownloads Version 3.2.27
joomla 3.4.0

Thanks You,
Keith

Hi
Yes it is possible to restrict which categories a user group can Create/Edit a Download.  It would be good if there was a simple User Group question about showing Uncategorised.  But not there in this release.  The method is a combination of Joomla! Permissions and View Access Levels.  Please see Controlled Access to Categories and Downloads (Permissions & Access Levels)  http://www.jdownloads.net/documentations/item/controlled-access-to-categories-and-downloads

Especially the last example.

Also would be a good idea to request in Suggestions

If you solve te 'challenge' or need more assist please let us know.
