Description

Hello,

I use Nextcloud 18.0.2 and have File access control installed (v1.8.1).

The documentation says "After installing the File Access Control app as described in Apps management navigate to the configuration and locate the File Access Control settings."
But I can't find this anywhere. I've browsed all the settings screens twice, and nothing looks like this image https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/17/admin_manual/_images/files_access_control_sample_rules.png found on https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/17/admin_manual/file_workflows/access_control.html

Is that a bug, or I'm not looking at the right place ?
Documentation could be more specific about the place were the settings are located.

Open the File Access Control workflow page at https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/17/admin_manual/file_workflows/access_control.html and compare its instructions with the linked sample image. Verify where the settings are located in the described setup, then update the documentation to state that location clearly and ensure the image or link is still relevant.
