This is al part of my struggling to move my site from 1 to 2…

I am using the File field in my templates and this all works just fine for guests, and super admins - in other words not logged in or just logged in as super admin.

When I have a member logged in to any other group, they cannot see the contents of the file field.

I am not talking about the ability to upload files, just to see on the site.

Here is the site.

I am running v2.5.3 - Build Date: 20120911

This may have something to do with the safecracker file field, which I am not understanding..

Here is a bit of a template:

{if upload_file_epub}
<a href="http://{upload_file_epub}">Download the eBook in ePub format</a>
{/if}

Where {upload_file_epub} is the file type field.

Any help would really make my day!

Bump.
Still struggling with this.

I spotted a few mentions of bugs in 2.5.3 that might relate, but here is a thing:
Before I upgraded I did have MSM, but I didn’t upgrade this - I don’t need it anymore.

Could this relate to this problem?

Please help!

Bump again:

Must be this bug: https://support.ellislab.com/bugs/detail/18276

Hi Chris,

I hate to see you’ve bumped into this bug!

Sorry for your wait. We do try to beat our Support Policy of 2 business days.

Indeed, you have found the bug report that is impacting you. If you post a comment on that report you’ll be notified of a fix. In the meantime, the workaround is to assign the affected groups upload privileges on that Upload Destination.

If you need anything else, please let me know!

Cheers,

Many thanks!

Hi Chris,

My pleasure! Is there anything else I can assist you with?

Cheers,
