Hello everyone, I want to make an application for storing Real Estate data. Since I am fairly new (translate: Noob) to PW, I get stuck a lot of times just trying to understand what’s the best way to find a “solution” for a certain “problem”. So, if you people don’t mind, I will use this topic for asking questions occasionally / regularly. I will start now with my first set of questions: In the application there would be one superadmin (me) and a unknown amount of users (clients). The users should be able to use the same template for adding estates (make sense to me, but maybe I’m wrong), but the users may not see the data (estates) of the other users. 1. Is there a built-in system in PW to do that? 2. Should I work with e.g. a branch per user? (user1 -> estatesTemplate, user2 -> estatesTemplate)

Hello there folks, I'm having trouble visualising how can I create an exam app that will have many exams with 20-200 questions (multiple choice) each. The questions will be organised by 3 categories (knowledge area, process group and level of proficiency). The students will take several tests as a preparation for a real certification exam. I'll have to create reports with the total of correct questions, stats from each category (showing where they need to improve), how long they took etc. The real exam is 4-hour long (200 long questions). The exams will be created by the admin and are the same for all users. There will exames with different levels of difficulty on each category and exams comprising all categories and all levels. We will have something like 1,000 questions on the database to choose. See the screenshot from a desktop system (not my own). My problem is: how can I approach this? When the user take and exam, should I create an instance of the exam page? Will form builder help me on that (I think not)? How can I save the user answers from each question to show the statistics at the end and have a history of exams taken along a year? I need to show how the student is improving along the way. Should I create a page that will work like a pivot table? It will good to now also what questions are most incorrectly answered by all students, so we can improve them if needed. And also be able to receive student's feedback on each question. I know that is a lot to ask, so feel free to ignore. --- I know I can create this app on other frameworks easily enough, but PW will be a handy tool for other features I'm planning but I cannot see how to best approach this. Thanks!

Use ProcessWire in a MVC like fashion, or just use pages?
tehandyb posted a topic in Getting Started
Hi I am looking into ProcessWire to build an application. I am used to building applications that have db models separated out, which is nice and organized for building the application. I would also want to separate out a lot of the logic for the application(more in a Model View/Presenter fashion) and have seen some people are doing MVC with ProcessWire. But I wonder if I use pages, would this be similar to having models? I read somewhere that Users are pages in processwire, and user attributes can be fields of these pages. So maybe pages are one of the magic ingredients in PW? Can/should I do the same for other db models in the application(use pages as the models), or would I better be served by integrating an MVCmodule into PW, or using Laravel with PW? It's starting to seem like PW is a very different type of framework and can do all the MVC stuff, but in a slightly different paradigm, and that Pages are like the model, and Templates are the View/Presenter/Controller. And you could separate out the controller if you wanted to create some classes and implement some routing if you wanted.
