Hi

I have a client that will would like to provide price lists that are specific and secured to a user/username.

I am looking for a way to achieve this ideally in the following manner.

  1. User logs in and is taken to their profile page
  2. On their profile page there is a modules displaying a list of their documents (price lists etc.)
  3. The files are secured from direct access unless logged in similar to using secure folders in DNN
  4. The files are locked to just that user and no other users can access
  5. The administration staff can upload the documents for all users into the 1 module and then simply apply a per user file permission to each one to have them locked

    the only module i have found with per user permissions on files is Document Exchange DMX by bring2mind, which is still an option but I am looking at alternatives that exist.




    Other Notes:
    I do not wish to setup a secure user folder for each user if possible as there are 2000+ and
    i do not wish to have 2000 +  documents modules on the screen to add specific documents to.
    I also do not want to setup a role for each user as this makes the DNN perform very sluggish (already tried)

Anyone know of any modules other than Document Exchange that can achieve this or can someone suggest a method of completing this?

 Cheers Ed

How much security do you actually need? Have you thought about using the Form & List module where the records are "assigned" to a specific username and then hidden from all other users?

Thanks for your reply

We are talking 1 zip file containing a 4 document formats containing product and their discounted prices for each user. and about 2000 + of them.

Obviously no other user can see another persons pricelist. I haven't looked at Form & List for this purpose i will see if it will bend.

Cheers M
