Editor.CGI Capabilites help.
Hi,

I am currently redoing my Hosting Dir, and want to move it all to Links SQL. Anyway, I plan to create a new category for each host, and allow them to add/edit packages as needed.

With the editor.cgi in the current version, am I some how able to limit them to there companies category?

Do you think this would be the best way to layout a hosting dir? Thanks!

Hi,

That would be an interesting approach. So each link is a package, and each host a category. You then make each host a section editor for their own category allowing them to add/remove packages as they see fit. It might work well.

You would need to edit maintain.cgi and set it up so that it throws an error if they have more then x links per category, there isn't a built in option or anything.

Let me know how it turns out!

Cheers,

Alex

Just need to finish off the remaining hassles with my host and MySQL - then I'm right.

Just to let you know,

This layout was the best in theory, but I had to drop it so that people could add links, cause they had to choose the right sub-cat to put it into.

Keep that in mind Smile
