I have been looking at all the different settings in the Control Panel and I can't figure out how to remove the option for some membership groups to add files for download to the Download section.

If I can't turn it off for some membership  groups, how do I turn off the whole download section of the forum? 

New and a little overwhelmed by all the settings!

A bit confused. Do you want to block those groups from adding new files or do you want to disable the downloads app for those groups?

  1. If you want to block them from adding new files, deselect the UPLOAD FILES checkbox when editing a category permissions
  2. If you want to disable the app completely go to ACP > System > SITE FEATURES > Applications > Downloads and follow these steps:
    • Click on the lock icon
    • Put the app offline
    • In the new settings that appear select which groups can still use  the application
    • Eventually add a custom message for those who can't access it (like purchasing a subscription, etc)
    • Click the save button
