Hi Paul, I am setting up a portal with a lot of files (10,000+) and 50+ different user types who would require restricted access to their own individual folders. I've also got to deal with 10+ different pages on the site which require their own document modules accessing a different subset of files. What is the best way to go about this? Thanks Chris

Hi Chris, I'm not entirely sure what kind of help you were looking for, but this sounds very doable with DMX. I am setting up a portal with a lot of files (10,000+) and 50+ different user types who would require restricted access to their own individual folders. Check out the documentation on "Root Pattern" in the module settings help file. I've also got to deal with 10+ different pages on the site which require their own document modules accessing a different subset of files. DMX is very sell suited to this. You add the module to the page and set the root folder to the correct place in the folder/file tree (module settings). Peter

Hi Peter, Thanks for that. Root Pattern is exactly what I was looking for. I have a follow-up question. Is there a way of assigning categories to files without going through the category user interface? Thanks Chris

Hi Chris, Just one way: select them and drop the files on the category in the main UI. Peter

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
