Hey all… We’re hoping this can be done without any coding. We’ve gotten close but need some advice.
Here’s the scenario:
We have a client who wants paid members to submit diary entries on a regular basis that will be stored in a container. The member needs to access their member’s area and be able to submit a new diary entry. They also need to see past entries and edit them.
Submitting the diary entry is pretty straightforward with a form and submit button. Displaying that information is similar to displaying profile information and we have that down.
But the tricky parts are:
-
Displaying a list of past entries. Is this best done with in repeater that is filtered by owner?
-
Once the items are displayed what’s the best way the member selects an entry and edits it? Where are we linking the member to? Is it another form? Are the permissions to this form read/write?
-
When we are working in Preview (not published) we’re not sure if the permissions are getting in the way of seeing true functionality.
By watching the online seminars we gather this can be done. But the full permission set and deeper aspects are often glossed over in these presentations.
If you can point us to tutorials that cover this that would be great. Or if you have specific advice to share here we would appreciate it. Our client clock is ticking and it’s taking too much time for our team to figure this out.
Partner Power!
Thanks so much!
