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 have created custom fields for users to fill out when uploading files, however, they do not show on the front end or the edit option.  Can the custom fields be included on the front end as well?  I love jDownloads and these are the small things that would make it even better.

Is there an option to define the front-end upload options?  There are a number of options I'd rather not give the public when uploading. I would like to select certain fields for the files, including some of the custom fields.

Yes all the abilities to select which upload questions are asked, including custom fields, are available.  They are specified through the User Group Settings. Please see
http://www.jdownloads.net/documentations/item/introduction-to-user-group-settings
and

Please let me know any suggestions for improving these articles
