Hello Again!
This time it is a feature request! I have been getting better at Php/MySQL, so I can probably do this myself, however, it would be nicer for it to be built into combu.
What I would like is similar to the previous forum post about a sharing system. I want to implement user groups within my game, and I thought of a quick way to do it using text files (of all things!
) I would like a similar feature to the user upload system, except in a global form, as in the files are stored in a global folder where they can at least be read by anyone (write by anyone == security problem!
) This would allow more complex systems to be implemented using Combu.
An Alternative: I am pretty sure the user upload functions only work for the currently logged user, but if there was a way to access a different cbuser's files using the same function, the thing I want to do can be more or less accomplished.
Please consider this and Implement in the near future!

The way I'm thinking to organize the share feature will accomplish this, here is how it's going to be: each file uploaded can have a flag set to share it with other users, a "likes" field and a "views" field. The share flag can be "friends" (only friends can read it) or "everyone" (everybody can read it), also there will be methods to send a "like" and send a "view".
About write permissions or share with specific users/groups, I don't see a real need for these features, Combu is not designed to be something like Dropbox
