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 some users that will be working on my server and I want their front-end uploads to be approved automaticly. I am putting them in the "Publisher" group so how can I set it to use that?

Hii
The 'options' for the front end users are in User Groups Settings in the jDownloads section of the Main Joomla menu .  So click on User Groups Settings. It will show a list of User Groups and some of their settings.  In your case click on the Publisher UG.
This opens up the front end confiuration for that user group.  Ther are 3 tabs Group Settings,
Group Creation/Edditing Settings and Limits.  In the Group Creation/Edditing Settings there is a setting 'Publish new Downloads' that needs to be set to Yes.  Its default is No.
