User is still able to delete Playlists

[Painkiller8818 228]

Server: 4.7.11.0

OS: WIN

 

I mentioned this about a year ago, but normal Users are still able to modify playlists or delete whole playlists, and yes the playlist gets deleted in the file system, this is not just in the menu and clicking will result in an permission error, it is working.

 

Also, they can see the exact storage location in the deletion dialog.

Could this please get fixed in a very near update? 

thanks

Hi there, we plan to revamp playlist permissions in upcoming updates. Thanks.

Actually version 4.7.12.0 stable is out and users are still able to delete playlists.

When will this be fixed? 

Thanks

There was no plan to update 4.7 any more after 4.7.11.  The new 4.7.12 is only a security update.

Does this mean it is fixed in 4.8?

Actually, completely re-vamped for 4.8.  Playlists can be private or public.

 4.8.0.37 any users can see public made playlists and also delete them still if you allow them access the library location for them. for example the playback reporting plugin playlists it makes are public and unfortuntaly any user can delete those still. Also the path location you asked to be hidden in initial report to be not shown is still being shown at this time. I dont see anyway to specify this playlist location away from the install location of the server. As ebr mentioned though individual users can now make private playlists and I can confirm those arent visible to others. I'm sure this is a lot of work in progress still to the playlist system but the private feature alone made me move to beta server for all the family members who have been bugging me for this forever.
