Hi George,

I wish to use the AHE as a single instance for my many users. How would I accomplish creating 1 instance of the AHE as well associated extensions.. (file mgr etc), where the user can login and access the services, but when they post there user specific content, it posts it to there respective directory. In other words, I would like not to have build user specific instances of this, IE:
- user1/install of AH3
- user2/install of AH3
- user3/install of AH3

Would prefer
/install of AH3 -->Login/User1/
/User2/
/User3/

it makes no sense to have multiple instances of the same thing.. and would be ideal and we need is to be able to reference the user credentials back to the respective folder area, this way there is only 1 instance of AHE to maintain verses hundreds..

please let me know how to accomplish this.
thanks George

Hello,

You can use the Dynamic options of Advanced HTML Editor 3 in order to do this. The Upload options have "Sub Folder" which can be dynamic /the yellow lightning button next to the sub folder field/

Hi, you noted, "The Upload options have "Sub Folder" which can be dynamic /the yellow lightning button next to the sub folder field/ (which you may have explained it, though not exactly certain, so i'll re ask..

How would a user login to this and be assigned to there folder per there credentials? For example,
the user goes to www.mysite.com/users (users is where the 1 instance of AH3 is) and then login, so that the instance posts all there content to the respective folder?
You noted above this is an upload area, but they would need pretty much full content control for there folders. For example, www.mysite.com/user/user1, or user2/ and so forth.

I suppose what we would need is a access control set, that says, User1 goes to folder user1.. please let me know how this can best be accomplished.

The Advanced HTML Editor 3 is an HTML Editor as the name says. So you place it into a page. This page contains your dynamic data. Depending on how you set up your own CMS you can use session variables/url variables, etc. in order to redirect each user to his own upload folder, or his files folder or section of the website.

Hi Again.. i have purchased all the extensions required to build my project.. What i think I'm trying to do is like
www.dmxzone.com/demo/ahe3/ahe3.1add-ons/index.html

notice, in 1 click you have a login, from there you would edit the page. How would i go about accomplishing this.. thus creating the login area, which then would redirect to the users area / folder, so that anything they create with the editor is respective to there folder.
please let me know, any detailed steps are greatly appreicated.
