File Privacy

[mflavius]

Hey talv,

Im more wondering if there is a way to implement the manager to only show files on a "Per User Basis" So user 1 can see their own files when they access the media manager after being logged in, user 2 can see their own also and so on.

Is this a possibility or is there a workaround you know about or have been working on?

Hi @mflavius

Given that all files are stored in a folder that is publicly accessible in theory you could access anything that has been uploaded if you knew the urls. So I'm not sure there is a way to implement this at the moment.

However with that being said I'm hoping to decouple the front end vue js component from the laravel implementation which would however allow you to write your own backend which could support what you're looking for.

I only created the repo yesterday so theres a lot to do and any help would be appreciated!

Ah i thought so,

But thats sounds like a really good idea, if i was any good with VueJs I would be glad to help but unfortunately i have a lot of learning to do. But until then i'll have to leave it to the professionals!

Thanks again for the help
