Configuration

Select level:

  1. Go to Settings > General Settings> Permission section.
  2. Choose the level of Restrict Delete Attachment for all models by default or for models with “default” restriction level.

Five levels:

  • Default : Use global configuration
  • Owner : Owner and admins only
  • Custom : Certain groups or users per related model.
  • Owner + Strict : Owner, admins and Certain groups or users per related model.
  • None : all users can delete them

Only Owner and Custom + Strict need specific configuration on models.

For Custom and Owner + Strict levels:

  1. Go to Settings > Technical > Database Structure > Models.
  2. Open a model for which attachment deletion should be restricted.
  3. Select ‘Restrict Attachment Deletion’, and assign ‘Attachment Deletion Groups’ and/or ‘Attachment Deletion Users’ as necessary (if no assignment, no one can delete the attachments of this model).

For assigning ‘Attachment Deletion Groups’/’Attachment Deletion Users’ to the model, you can alternatively add the model in the ‘Attachment Deletion Models’ tab in the respective group/user form.

Bug Tracker

Bugs are tracked on GitHub Issues. In case of trouble, please check there if your issue has already been reported. If you spotted it first, help us to smash it by providing a detailed and welcomed feedback.
