Title: Site files located in a subfolder cannot be accessed by normal users Status in Mahara ePortfolio: Fix Committed Bug description: This is the original bug report on bug #1223069. Because the discussion went into a different direction and a different feature developed which does not address this issue here directly, I created a new report. According to the Site Files documentation, files uploaded into the site files section are meant to be accessible to all logged-in users (via the "Site Files" tab on any file selector). The one exception to this is files in the hard-coded "Public" folder, which are meant to also be accessible to users who aren't logged in. A user on the #mahara irc channel reported that Site Files sitting in a subdirectory, however, are not accessible to normal users. I verified this behavior in 1.8dev. To reproduce: 1. Log in as an admin user 2. Go to the Site Files page 3. Create a subdirectory 4. Upload a file into that subdirectory 5. Log in as a non-admin user 6. Add a "files to download" block to a page 7. In the block's file selector, go to the "site files" page 8. You will not see the subdirectory you created in step 4, or be able to access its files.
