Title: add/upload icon is not showing in the front end
Post by: soleary670 on 16.03.2017 22:16:26
The add/upload icon is not displaying in the front end. I cannot figure out how to get it visible. I have checked that the option is checked in the user group settings page. I have also checked and verified that the user has all editing permissions (the user is a super user). The layout has the {upload_link} but is not showing the icon, I think it is the add button. I have also tried other layouts. I would appreciate any help trying to get this to work. I am using joomla 3.5.1 and Jdownloads 3.2.46

Hi
Is the user Ranking value for the Super User the highest level? Or is there a User Group with a higher Ranking?

And is the Display add/upload icon ticked in the user Group with the highest Ranking Users Groups Settings in Group Creation/Editing Settings?

Thank you for responding so quickly. I checked that Super User is the highest level, there is no other group higher. And yes the display add/upload icon is ticked. I also verified that the site was seeing me as super user. I did try to untick the add/upload icon, after saving the box reticked itself. I tried that on the guest and public accounts, it seems to be ticked on all of them. Any idea why this might be happening?

Hi
I have been away for a few days.  If you are logged on as super user on the front end I would expect to see the upload icon

Could you please check the Header part of your currently active Categories, Category and Files Layouts to see they include a line
    <div class="jd_top_navi_item" style="">{upload_link}</div>
