users file delete permisson

[streamino]

hi david , my users sometimes delete their important files ..but i dont want that ..how could i deny this permission about delete.they can rename the files and edit the comments but i don't want to give them a permission for delete the files ..how could i do that .

You could probably just edit the .tpl file and remove the delete button from there. That should be enough.

thanks for reply david but i want this edit for only my users not admins ..admins have get a permission about delete..if i remove this button ,how admins will delete the files ?

Try this:

Open attach_mod/posting_attachments.php

Find:

Code: Select all

         init_display_template('attachbody', '{POSTED_ATTACHMENTS_BODY}', 'posted_attachments_body.tpl');

Add after:

Code: Select all

         $template->assign_block_vars('switch_user_admin', array());

Open templates/yourtemplate/posted_attachments_body.tpl

Find:

Code: Select all

         &nbsp; <input type="submit" name="del_attachment[{attach_row.ATTACH_FILENAME}]" value="{L_DELETE_ATTACHMENT}" class="liteoption" />

Replace with:

Code: Select all

   <!-- BEGIN switch_user_admin -->
         &nbsp; <input type="submit" name="del_attachment[{attach_row.ATTACH_FILENAME}]" value="{L_DELETE_ATTACHMENT}" class="liteoption" />
   <!-- END switch_user_admin -->

Hopefully that does the trick...my phpBB2-fu is a bit rusty.
