Hi,

I like the idea that when somebody uploads a new file, (s)he is redirected to fill in the fields belonging to that file-type.
But why only if the user has the permission to 'edit any files'? Why should this not work for 'edit own files', too?

thx,
eR

Category: feature » bug

Appears to be a bug, at least in the context of the Media file selector widget. There should also be an "Edit media" button in the field widget, but there isn't.

This might have already been fixed in the latest 7.x-2.x. Can you please test using the latest dev to confirm if it's still an issue?

Ah, yes. That is indeed the case. I should remember to always test against the latest commit. Thanks.

There are some more recent posts relating to this issue and the media module here: #1947388: 'Edit own files' permission does not output 'Edit media' button after adding file.

We're using the -dev version of file_entity from June 16th 2013, and still seem to be having this issue. Have tried with the very latest -dev, and the issue is still occurring too.

Please file new issues instead of reopening old ones. Also, it looks like #1947388: 'Edit own files' permission does not output 'Edit media' button after adding file is specific to the Media module and does not involve any changes to File entity.
