I am creating a website for a car club. The club is orgainized into Regions, each having a Regional Director. While I want to give the directors the capability of creating content for their region I do not want to make them contributors to main site. Can I create a separate site for each region, assign the regional director as a contributor to each respective site. The Regional Director site will be ONLY two web pages, events, and photos. The main site will have links to the Regional Directors’ Pages so from main site if I want to review goings on in a specific region I just click on a page link that points to the specific Region Page. Can I do this? and if so what would the URL be? something like http://wix.com/rdir1.html?

Hi,

Yes, it is feasible. You can create a site for each region and create another site with links to these site.

Hey cwvega76 ,

After re-checking the scenario, there’s a workaround that may suit your needs-

Assuming the people allowed to enter content are site members , you can do the following:

  1. Create two admin pages that are member-only , one for “events” and another for “photos” .
  2. Add a form for each page that allows the member to enter new content.
  3. In the page code, use the logged in user to set the “region” field automatically based on the current user.

The new data submitted will be part of that region’s dynamic pages .
You can also add a backend hook to validate that only a specific user submits data to a specific “region”.

I hope that it’s clear.

Have a good day,
Tal.
