RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media I was amazed at how much I was able to accomplish with XMod the first several years I was into DNN. I am not a real programmer either, but using the tag-based language with all the extra hooks it has made it such a powerful tool. The learning curve ... by Cliff Hammock in General Discussion on 20 Oct 2011 10:04 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Are you familiar with XMP? If so is there a reason you wouldn't use it to build out user-based upload, storage and display capabilities? I know it's been around for a long time. I've always been curious about it but have never taken the jump. Is th ... by Jeff Blanks in General Discussion on 20 Oct 2011 06:02 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media @Jeff - As I mentioned in this thread, I am going to take a stab at building out some user-centric storage / display capabilities in XMod Pro. Will Sugg seems to have made some progress in this area already.http://www.activemodules.com/activesocial/ ... by Cliff Hammock in General Discussion on 17 Oct 2011 09:21 AM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media It's only been a few months since the last post here, but I'm back to reassess and see if others have come up with any other possible solutions to management of user documents. I've resorted to strictly using radeditor in all my module instances ... by Jeff Blanks in General Discussion on 15 Oct 2011 09:18 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media 4. Add [PortalRoot]Users to all your view paths for images, documents, flash, etc. This is done in your new "MyConfig.xml" file Sorry, couldn't edit and update my post. by Jeff Blanks in General Discussion on 15 May 2011 04:05 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media UPDATE: After further testing, I can confirm the dnnWerk RadEditor works the same as the current DNN RadEditor when they create user folders. I'm not sure if this is a requirement. I seem to remember the DNN RadEditor worked without this, but ... by Jeff Blanks in General Discussion on 15 May 2011 04:02 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media The other option is to use the provider that Telerik built (for use with it's DNN trial module of RAD Editor). That provider will allow you turn user folders on across all managers. Managers being the Image, templates, document, media, etc. managers ... by Jeff Blanks in General Discussion on 15 May 2011 12:58 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Posted By Greg Brown on 17 Mar 2011 01:03 PM I'm thinking this module (which is pretty cool) will do what we need: http://www.snowcovered.com/Snowcovered2/Default.aspx?tabid=242&PackageID=17711 It's token replacement feature for folder paths will ... by Cliff Hammock in General Discussion on 17 Mar 2011 01:24 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media @TotalGolf First, the RAD editor provider that ships with DNN won't do this. Next, we need to determine if the provider available on codeplex (http://radeditor.codeplex.com/) which was built by Philipp Becker (thanks again Philipp!) will do user ... by Greg Brown in General Discussion on 17 Mar 2011 01:05 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media This is the one that will be incorporated into the core eventually: http://radeditor.codeplex.com/ I've messed around with the current radeditor (outside dnnWerk) and have noticed that it does create the folders for each user.

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Can you provide details on how to configure RAD editor to use individual folders? When I was looking a little while ago, I didn't think it was possible. I ended up choosing DNNCKeditor provider which does allow it and also allows custom configurat ... by TotalGolf in General Discussion on 17 Mar 2011 12:30 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Just checked and the module I mentioned above will also create user folders so I guess you could use it INSTEAD of as well as in addition to RAD. by Greg Brown in General Discussion on 17 Mar 2011 12:11 PM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Yes, a module to allow users to mange their folders would be nice and definitely the best way to go. However, some short term workarounds might be possible should you want to explore the RAD editor solution to user folders.

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Greg, that is correct, but the telerik provider is using the core api for user folders. I've been doing some research on this and I really think we have been overlooking a pretty good solution that is right in front of us.

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media With regards to each user having their own folder DNN does this now via the Telerik RAD editor. If you use Telerik's provider instead of DNN's there is an option to allow each user their own folder per each "manager". i.e. Photo manager, documen ... by Greg Brown in General Discussion on 17 Mar 2011 09:59 AM

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media One of the challenges we have always had with Active Social is that DNN has been very content centric.

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Actually the core does support user files, but the API hasn't really been leveraged by third-party module developers. Very interesting.

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media This concept is great and is something I've thought about a lot as well.

RE: Manage User Files, Documents and Media Hi Jeff, Actually the core does support user files, but the API hasn't really been leveraged by third-party module developers.

How to Hard Delete Users in DotNetNuke 5.x One of the changes to DNN over the past year or so was the way that users were handled when they were deleted. Originally when a user was deleted from DotNetNuke they were hard deleted and completely removed from the database.
