@bmartino1: hey pal, calm down, nobody forces you to help him. If you don't want or like help him, it's OK, just relax. We don't want to start a battle for something insignificant like this. This is a forum, not a private chat, so we all can participate and try to found a solution for his problem. If your solution doesn't fulfill his needs, then someone else will come here with a better solution. Just remember to be nice...
This is quite doable with macros, and I understand the user needs. He doesn't want to be editing 'permissions' properties on each folder he shares. Imagine he is sharing 1,000 folders, with 5,000 sub-folders, you can't apply the method given by bmartino1, since is an impossible task. His method can work for a few folders, but not for a massive amount of folders. But rest assured this should be easy to do with macros.
I recommend you (gogi1000) wait an answer for someone here expert with macros.

@leo... this is known stuff.. i know i'm not required to help etc...
my problem is when the user specially lies/ fails test... or plainly ignores..
something like hey that not what i want...
i specially asked:
i'm slightly confused, what is you end goal?
ANd we/ I got:
i just want hide upload button when user in subfolder. but when in parent folder upload button is showed
and instead... i get something that was already answered...
------------------------------------------
SO while we on this little rant:
(witch this tell me, that the uses didn't even bother to read, nor looking for help... and to further the frustration, the third users comment is now gone...)
i was expecting the user "gogi1000" to put something like "using the template" to accomplish etc..etc...
or due to etc..etc.. this can't work, i need etc.etc...
since that didn't happen, he no longer worth my time....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yet i feel more moved now
witch is why the
it for me to know not to bother with it any more...
especially since the answer (for the template again...) is to copy the dam template to the folder and remove the word "upload".... (sure there some more bugs to fix then that, but that would remove upload to all users...)
ore even define the upload path to a single port idk something like {~upload = "http:\\ipaddr\fodler" }
That way all uploads regardless of when you hit the upload button will go to that folder....
he didn't mention implematiaon!.. or what it was beign used for.. so he has etc.. files...
Imagine he is sharing 1,000 folders, with 5,000 sub-folders, you can't apply the method
but hey... what the heck... since you want to call people out on the forum.. WHY NOT! : "We don't want to start a battle for something insignificant like this."
so i will no longer help in this regard....(but to explain and or comment to you...). and yes, the permission can be set easier, he would have to take the dam macro code to all the sub folders anyway... so you hypotical / image would still work under my solution...:
i don't know lets think this one out a bit more...
what a way we can add to subjugate files and folders with out problems!...
-----------------------
SOLUTION:
I know we use the virtual folder to "abc" file format...
so eatch folders and files are now going to have a new path... http:\\ipaddress\a\folder 1
then folder 2 and folder there file there etc going down into a....
(this doesn't break real folders nor file paths....) simple right click root add virtual folder actual it "a"
drag all the sub content into virtual folder "a"
set what needs to be done to folder a...
(this includes the template...)
BUT THAT NOT WHAT WAS ASKED!
simple movement, and 1 single permission to add to a folder to apply the affect, you can do the same with the macros...
up untill this last post,
I have been nice....
(Maybe a bit arrogant...)
BUT hey since there was only one user that got on my nerves and he doesn't come around much...(and it not anyone on this thread...) i don't see the porblem nor point...
beside next time please PM me if you think it a problem LEO
