custom file field access was created by Christoph Hagedorn
Hi there,
I added a custom file field which I want to be a required field on registration but not on profile change.
This can be handled via access policy (see attachment):
in the joomla backend when access policy is set to guest. E.g. the admin does not see the "gueast" field on the profile page of the user. So the link to the file is missing.
Could you please change that behaviour?
Furthermore I suggest to put a .htaccess file with access restriction into the file folder. Otherwise the world can access those files.
At least there should be a hint to protect that folder.
Cheers,
Chris

- public: shown on registration and on profile
- guest: shown on registration only
- registered: shown on profile update only

Hello Chris
I think we can bypass access level check for super admin and it would solve this issue.
With that said, please submit a support ticket sending us super admin account of your site so that we can work on the modification for you
For this one, I will include it into core download package, too
