OK, so finished my marathon forum catch-up...14 pages of threads! Here's signs you've been away too long..... 1. You get this message when trying to like a post... 2. Soma has (finally) updated his personal web site! 3. Pete trimmed his "facial" hair (ahem, fur) 4. Arimo is the new Arial, no Arial is the new Arimo, no actually Arial is still...uh, Arial..... 5. Willy C is designing a new top secret Admin theme. ;-) 6. You are no longer sure what this means.. 7. It's Christmas eve and you are starting a lousy thread... 8..........?

Merry Christmas everybody! Sorry for not being here guys, I had to quit web-development for a while. Still come here regularly and read a lot of cool stuff you post. Hey, Valan. I guess this is what you need: Also check out these modules for more granular access control: http://modules.processwire.com/modules/page-edit-per-user/ http://modules.processwire.com/modules/page-edit-per-role/ It should be enough to solve this problem.

Just in case anyone was wondering why I've been silent for the last week, it's because I've been away on vacation, so have a lot of catch up to do here (didn't have internet access while I was gone). Just got back last night, and it seems my hands have to re-learn how to type. When I click on "view new content" I have 9 paginations of unread messages–ouch. This is probably going to take me a week to get through, especially with the Christmas holiday here. But I've been anxious to get back into the swing of things here and looking forward to getting focused on PW 2.4 now. Because I'm behind on the messages here, if there is anything urgent that you know of waiting on me, please reply or PM me and I'll make sure to get those right away. Thanks to all of you for taking good care of the forum while I was gone. Also Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays to everyone.

Fieldtype File from folder I “needed” a module to select a file from a folder, using an <select> and store the filename. There's only 1 setting: The path to the folder to list. The Path is relative to the templates directory. So if your files are located in /site/templates/scripts/, type scripts/ in the `path to files` setting. here's the gist, enjoy. This module is released because it was useful for me in several projects.

I already had a shop running with processwire on an unreleased website. If I should have some free time in the next weeks I may write a tutorial or so.

It's a good looking website. I would only change the logo to pink

That's cruel. Don't they have any respect !

I agree that it does sound like unnecessary duplication. What's the benefit of creating your own users as pages separate from ProcessWire users? I'm not sure I understand the considerations there yet. But if you want to go that route and create your own pages as users, then there's probably no reason to maintain a 1-to-1 mapping with PW users. Instead, you can probably have a single user that you map all your own user pages to. Or perhaps a few separate PW users that you can map to, each with different levels of permissions... but then this is treating PW users as roles or groups, circumventing a system that's already there. I think the question of what users are may be the wrong question and instead it might be better to look at using the existing users system and what management additions are needed in your case. Perhaps modifying or extending the current ProcessUser module to provide the capabilities you need would be the simplest route.
