Hi,
when you want to change the listed data fields, so you can change it in the jD 'User Groups Settings' (for each user group different).

When you want to change the layout, change the /components/com_jdownloads/views/form/tmpl/edit.php. But use then the 'override' function from Joomla.

Hello, I have created an override and I modified the "edit.php" file.

@vassiskansa
From the pictures you have shown I think, for example, that you do not want the language, sysem licence and confirm licence fields shown.  Is that correct?
If that is so you do not need to edit any php file or create overrides or anything like that.

The challenge is that because of the Joomla! inheritance rules when a user belongs to more than one User Group. For Example if a User is a member of the say Editor UG then they are automatically of the Author, Registered and Public UGs even if you have not ticked them in when you create the user.

jD uses a Ranking level, set up in the second field of the User Groups Settings, to determine which User Groups settings to use.  By far the simplest scheme is to set up a new User Group, I call mine Uploader, and sett the Ranking to a high level such as 133.  One does have to set the permissions on the top level categories to allow thge 'Uploader' to Create, Edit and maybe Delete. And of course allocate users to that UG.  The parent of Uploader UG is best set to Registered.
