Hello world! I created a form in the members section (my-account) to add content to the site. All the fields are connected to a database that feeds a dynamic page that updates every time new content is added to the site.
Now, I’m working on an extension to the member site so that the contributor who’ll be doing the content upload can see the history of everything they have created (this is located on the members page with the “Profile” section). All this with the thought that maybe he/she is going to make a mistake in drafting, uploading images, etc.
Here’s the thing:
-
How can I make it so that whoever will upload the content can also modify the database data without having to give him access to the page as an editor (this person has no knowledge in web page editing and I’m afraid he’s going to delete something). I just want him to do everything from the form that I am creating in the members section.
-
How can I create an automatic unique ID generator for each of the posts that are generated. Currently, I am using the following combination: “proy1”, “proy2”, etc. This is intended to prevent the uploader from duplicating the same ID in two different publications.
Beforehand thank you very much!!!
