* Secure file access with 3 security levels
o Public : same functionality as before version 2.0, the file is accessible to everybody
o Protected : the access is restricted to registered users
o Private : the access is limited to only the user ( + SuperAdministrators)

* Multi-Folder file upload management: the SuperAdministrators have the possibility to upload a file in another user’s private space.
* Access protection to non-public files
* Completely remade the frontend and the backend interfaces
* Quickly change security level for each user and each file.
* Possibility to synchronize the existant files on the server with the database.
* A dedicated « Shared Private Space » forum on Alter Systems Forum at http://www.altersystems.fr/en/forum-7.html

10/30/2007 : UPDATE : 1.3 (final) :
* nothing new, but 2 month of testing and some bugs solved.

09/01/2007 :UPDATE : 1.3 BETA :

* new Spanish language included
* Portuguese not supported any more (contact us if you can/want to translate this)

o group limited access is now possible,
o "what was the last change ?" info,
o activate/deactivate the email send button,
o quotas management.
* each super-administrator may check users folders from the BackEnd (but not the others super-administrators folders)

Exactly the functionality I needed, thank you. Great job.

multi language forum by deadone, April 8, 2008

For raremind, I just wanted to mention that the altersystems forum is multi language, but as most of the users that post in that forum are french, they answer in french. Post in english and they will answer in english.

Great Component with one major flaw by raremind, March 6, 2008

This Component does exactly what it says it does. Been waiting for something stable like this for a long time and this realy was what I was looking for. There is only one major problem that kept me from giving it a 5 star rating. I need to make a change and can not find where it is in the code, so here is the problem..... no documentation what so ever and going to their forums is useless (unless you speak and read french). Their help in the component itself directs you to their forums. The Component is great, just hope you dont need help.

Problems deleting files by impalah, February 18, 2008

Hi:

I'm having problems deleting files for users that are no super administrators. Simply it doesn't delete.

The rest of functions works ok. An excellent extension.

Security, please! by zuze, October 25, 2007

I like this component and it does just what I need, BUT there is one major issue: as the document's link is open it can be open by any user by clicking on that link. The link can be emailed or cached in browser memory and available to other people.

If the link would be viewable only by that registered user, like the DocMan has, this would be perfect.

Can this feature be added?

Very fine component by twistedforest, September 20, 2007

It does exactly what it is suppose to do. But i had to switch from PHP5 to PHP4 doing the installation. Other then that, everything is perfect.

Members like it but. by jasonrhl, July 26, 2007

We love this component. It has added a new dimension to the site. Only problem is that they are not sure of their upload status. is it possible to show the status of the upload?

The guy who wrote the hacked version should get together with the writer to make this component really nice.

Little hacked version : 1.2.5 by ccrosaz, July 23, 2007

1 of 1 people find this review helpful:

I modify this component to allow more settings, and propose my change to alter system.

You can find this modified version (1.2.5) on Joomlagora.org:
http://www.joomlagora.org/component/option,com_docman/task,doc_details/gid,3/

- Display or not buttons,
- Specify User level to access buttons,
- Select display view,
- Front admin interface, allowing super users to manage users files.
- Define allowed file extensions

Very Nice! by MetalHellsAngel, May 30, 2007

This does exactly what it says. It's especially handy if you have a private family website and would like to let your family members have somewhere to host files. Thanks so much for making this and keep up the good work!

Good....but.. by RCheesley, May 28, 2007

I really like this - it does what I struggled to get docman doing ... creating private folders for each client registered via community builder.

Only problem I had is clicking on "configuration" broke it, so I had to reinstall.

Also, when I upload files, the filenames seem to be called "." and ".." "..." etc. Not entirely sure why this is happening but it's a bit problematic when trying to remember which file is which. Might have missed something but given the problem with the configuration I'm hesitant to poke around too much!

Would also be great to have some way of changing the default save dir to something unique (e.g. "fileuploads") rather than "espacePrive".

Support forums would be extremely helpful (in english if possible!) to enable discussion of problems/fixes/etc.

Otherwise, very promising if the language & bugs issues get fixed!

Really easy by darkonen, April 25, 2007

This is a very easy component and very useful to let users have their documents,excels.. in a saved place and aviable everywhere, i just would add a feature to include a progress bar,
Good Job!!

Wow! by drewhiggins2, April 14, 2007

I'd been looking for a simple, no fuss, extremely basic file manager and I found one. Easy as clicking Browse, finding a file and clicking Upload.

Absolutely recommended. Great for shared virtual drives you can access from anywhere.

Very useful private folder utility by keveen, February 8, 2007

1 of 1 people find this review helpful:

This is a very simple, very useful tool for uploading and downloading any file into a private folder that is created when someone registers on your site. It could also be useful when you want to quickly upload or download a file when you are at work or on the road. I have not tested online yet.

The only thing it really needs is some way of limiting total file size, otherwise someone could block your site. Until then, I will use it as an admin tool. The interface is in French but it is easy to find the text and replace it with your language. Excellent.

Overall Pretty Good by Webby Joe!, February 8, 2007

This Component is pretty good and was exactly what i was looking for. Although some file's had to be modified to incorporate english, thumb's up :)
