Introduction 

What does it do? 

checkfaluploads adds a checkbox to the File List module and the ElementBrowser that editors must confirm before a file upload is accepted, granting the configured owner unrestricted rights to that file. It also stores the uploading editor's user UID on the sys_file record, so administrators can trace back who uploaded a given file.

This only covers what TYPO3 core itself handles. Extensions with their own upload logic need a developer to wire in our FalUploadService / CheckFalUploadValidator API by hand, and frontend forms without a login have no user to assign at all, see Known Problems.
