missing button "Select & upload files" for editors without admin rights
Added by Kurt Kunig about 9 years ago.

Description
It is a pitty.
A normal editor without admin rights has not the possibility to upload images into a data record with drag&drop from his desktop!?
I tested it with an editor, named "kkk", who belongs to a BE-user-group with a complete permission-set (all check boxes are checked).

Files
It clarified in the meantime!!!
The BE user group, an editor belongs to, MUST have a file-mount to the folder /user_upload/!!!
Hint: This should be done automatically!?

Hi Kurt,
IMO this is already automated as much as is possible.
The folder user_upload is the default folder of your storage (for local storages) and indeed the user needs to have access to this folder (through a file-mount).
To be able to (dis)allow users access to parts of the "filesystem" you need to explicitly set the file-mout access for the user(group).
Not sure if/how/when we could automatically assign/create these file-mounts.

ps. But this is a nice one for a getting started FAQ
BTW: You can define an own upload folder for user/groups with TSconfig:
options.defaultUploadFolder = 1:/path_to_filemount/upload_folder
I tried it with:
options.defaultUploadFolder = 2:/fileadmin/user_upload
or
options.defaultUploadFolder = 2:/fileadmin/user_upload/
ID 1 is occuoied by another filemount.
Result: a full frame of error messages!?¶
Nevertheless you have to define a filemount to "fileadmin/user_upload/"
So it is simpler to give the editor user group access to that (default) filemount.
After having done this, the Button "Select & upload files" appears!
