Support for jDownloads 3 has been ended
Since 17 August 2023 Joomla.org has discontinued support for Joomla 3.x. Therefore, we will no longer offer official support for our Joomla 3 jDownloads version 3.9.x from January 2024.
Please update your website to the latest Joomla version (Joomla 4 or Joomla 5) as soon as possible. Afterwards, please update jDownloads to the latest published version. The longer you delay, the more difficult the upgrade process for your website is likely to be.

I am using JDownloads to create a fairly complex downloads section with a multi-tiered folder structure, almost 1000 downloads and two access levels. I have all of my downloads uploaded and all of my categories and downloads set to the appropriate access level. When I login as the access level that is meant to be more limited, I can still see the categories and downloads that I do not have permission to download. Is there any way to make it so that items you do not have access to do not show up at all?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I think you should read the examples in the jDownloads documentation about permissions and access levels.
See the link above.

Hi Arno,

Thank you for the advice. I had read through this document already. Realized that I had my global viewing access levels set a little funny. Thanks for your help and sorry for the stupid question.
