I just noticed that items uploaded by unauthenticated members can be deleted by unauthenticated members. This was not the case previously. Don't know which version changed it. I was using 3.5.5 and upgraded to 3.5.6 hoping that it get fixed but that did not work.

Please help. I rely a lot on allowing unauthenticated members to upload documents on my website.

Thank you.

While I still believe that if you decide to allow anonymous users to upload files, you should allow anonymous users to edit/delete them, I believe in providing the most flexibility that I can in the Repository module so that it can be used in whichever way you wish.

I have added a new Module Setting to the 03.05.06 Beta, that will allow you to decide whether you want anonymous users to be able to edit/delete items uploaded by anonymous users. It's a new checkbox on the Module Settings screen right after the Roles section.

I uploaded a new Beta build, 16492, with this new setting implemented.

* UPDATED 11/15/11 *
NEW SETTING - Anonymous Upload Editing/Deleting
A new setting was added so that if you allow anonymous uploads by checking 'All Users' in the Upload Roles section, you can then decide whether you want to allow anonymous users to be able to edit or delete uploads by anonymous users.  If checked, then any anonymous user can edit/delete any item uploaded by themselves or any other anonymous user.  If not checked, the anonymous uploads can only be edited/deleted by an administrator.

Will this option be put into an official release of repository module?
