Configuration 

Owner 

When you upload a file, you must confirm a checkbox that grants the configured owner unrestricted rights to it. The owner named in the checkbox label is a placeholder you can set in the extension settings.

Upload rights checks 

The confirmation checkbox is shown in two places, each with its own extension setting: drag & drop uploads (the File List module and FormEngine's inline "Select & upload files" fields, which both use TYPO3 core's DragUploader) and uploads through the ElementBrowser popup.

File List and the inline fields cannot be switched off individually: they both submit through the very same upload mechanism internally, and TYPO3 core gives us no way to tell them apart on the server side. Disabling the drag & drop setting therefore turns off the check for both at once.

Store uploader on file 

Alongside the checkbox, checkfaluploads stores the uploading user as a reference on the sys_file record. Backend and frontend uploads have their own setting, so you can switch either one off independently.

All settings on this page are enabled by default.
