INTRODUCTION

The File View Access module helps to define the permission for the enduser to view the uploaded files or not. The uploaders can decide whether the uploaded file needs to be accessed by a particular set of users.

The privilege is assigned for each file that is uploaded by the user. This module was developed to overcome the problem with the private file system for specific file uploads rather than all.
