A question about categories and access levels.

Hi! Is it possible to upload documents with only a few users being able to see it when they belongs the same group with same access levels?
I want to create a group of clients and then uploading documents. Then, I want that when selecting the owners of this document, only the selectioned owner could be able to see and download the file.

I found a post saying it's possible, creating groups, access levels and the creating users inside those groups and levels. How can I filter who will be able to see and download the files? 

Hi Lucio,
Thank you for your question! Yes, it is absolutely possible to achieve what you described. There are two main ways to control who can view and download documents:

1. Assigning an Owners Group to a Category:
You can create an "Owners" group in Joomla, which can include any users you choose. When you assign this group as the owner of a category, only users in that group will be able to access the documents within that category. Users from other groups will not have access.

2. Assigning Individual Owner Users to a Category:
Alternatively, you can select specific users as the owners of a category. This method requires you to manually assign each user, but it is ideal if you want only a small number of users to have access to the documents in that category.

Both methods allow you to control exactly who can see and download your files. Please let me know if you need detailed instructions or further assistance with setting this up.

Thanks
