Some functions earlier present, but disconnected have been included : 1. Possibility to automatic set access rights on the files uploaded by means of a component, 2. Monitoring & logging uploading of files. How update? 1. Download from my file archive the updated archive with a component, deinstall in the standard way the old version, install in the standard way the updated version, make adjustment of a configuration of a component. I remind, that component AFM at deinstall does not delete any before the entered data (the list of files, comments, descriptions, ratings...), except own configuration so all data available for you on file archive to remain! As I pay your attention, that number of the version of a component is left without changes - 2.7, owing to that anything new has not appeared - earlier disconnected functions have simply been included. 2. Go into a component configuration, and on the Expanded Tab find parametre "Rights to the loaded files". You can establish in this field of value 0444,0666 or 0777. All other entered values are ignored. If to leave the given field empty - any actions with files it will not be undertaken (it for at whom and so all works normally). How to use? 1. If you need change of access rights on uploaded files - enter in the field "Rights to the loaded files" necessary value (as a rule, 0666). If such actions are not necessary to you - leave the given field empty. 2. Save component configuration. 3. Upload files on a server with the help front-end mechanism of a component. 4. Enter on your server by FTP or a different way. 5. In the catalogue/components/com_afm/js there should be a file upload.log - in it the information on results of last made loading of files and change of access rights (if it has been included) contains. ATTENTION! The file upload.log contains the information only about the latest loading! Each following loading erases the information on the previous! And, at last, the most important thing: 1. Remember that all is far not a server are adjusted so, that will resolve to you change of access rights with the uploaded files! In this case you need to solve the given question with yours hoster. 2. Remember that change of access rights with files works only on servers under control of UNIX-systems! If your server works under control of Windows-system, change of access rights will not work!
