File View Access

File view access module helps to define the permission for the end-user to view the uploaded files or not. The uploaders can decide whether the uploaded file need to access by a particular set of user(User has the privilege to view the File view access permission) or not.

The privilege is assigned for each file that uploaded by the user. This module basically developed to overcome the problem with the private file system for specific file uploads rather than all.
