I have 2 groups that people get added to when they subscribe. I have restrict uploads component but that only works for Trust level. How do I get the specific Categories tied to the group to only allow uploading on them?

You’ll have to modify the current theme component to allow for groups. It shouldn’t be too hard because trust levels are essentially groups, so most of the work is already there.

This might work or may need a bit if cide mod [image] Restrict uploads Theme component This is a very small theme component that will remove the upload button from the composer toolbar and disable drag-and-drop uploading for users that are under a specified trust level.

[image] hipp0: I have restrict uploads component but that only works for Trust level. Last week I said [image]Set file size upload to 17 megs, unable to upload 12.2 meg file There is a theme component Restrict uploads which blocks uploads for lower trust levels. Maybe you can extend that to be group-based instead of trust level based. If you can’t customize it yourself, you may need to find someone in #marketplace who can do it for you.

How do I make it so only specific subscriber groups can upload?
