The problem that I am having now is the file management with the user-homepages component. When I go to login with my log and pass for the site, it won't work for the invision file management script. Do I have to setup users for this script as well, or is there a included a mod to fuse the two databases? I would really like to allow my users to only see their own files as well when they load this script. I didn't get much in the documentation on this as well. Any ideas? BTW, this is a really great script. File management in and within itself for mambo is quite an accomplishment. Mambo does a very poor job with this. Many times in a community, users need to have their own files to share with others, or to write articles, reviews, user homepages, etc, etc. What I would really like to see is a complete file management component for mambo. I would do it myself if I had more php knowledge. For users to be able to load a file management component from their user menu, that pops up a couple of icons, pictures, files, etc, and then they can arrange their oown files in there. Then when they go to do things, like add a new item, or something, all their files would be right there. This would also come in very handy with image galleries, and much much more!! Cheers for all the work Mark!

I got this problem fixed now. Thanks anyway. I would just like for my users to be able to log into this manager without having to sign in again. I would also like for users to have access without having to add them or run the component in the admin backend. Does anyone know how to set this up?

Cheers,
Jacob

HI

if you change line 103 of admin.lmtg_myhomepage.php so that the '0' is changed to '1' (just before the long list of 'NULL' ) so it becomes


$sql .= "VALUES ('', '".$usrl_row->username."', '".$password."', '".$usrl_row->name."', '', '', '', NULL , NULL , '', NULL , '', NULL , '', 'user', '', '', '', '1', NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL , NULL );";


and then move the code from lines 42-119 in admin.lmtg_myhomepage.php to line 45 of lmtg_myhomepage.php any registered user should then automatically have a home page and personal filemanager directory space.



BUT are you sure you want to do this? I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you DON'T allow automatic registration, otherwise someone can come off the street, autoregister, upload a php script, run it, and destroy your site

cheers

Mark, I am not really using the homepages anymore. I just want to make use of this file manager for the site. B/c as it is, there is no good solution for user to upload images to the site for publishing news items. So, I want to allow this as a solution to keep images and files tidy as well. You don't have an integration with the file manager into any of the WYSIWYG editors do ya? I am guessing that I will have to do a little tweaking myself.

Cheers,
Jacob
