Smart Simple Blog / Image gallery site users

Hi Joe,

 

MojoPortal is by far the best and have great features.

I would like to see on the blog where a user can upload images more easily without having the browse server option. So when they click on add image it is a simple image upload that adds the image to the blog - so basically same as the editor i see here but with a separate button to upload the image witch looks like the the add image under image galleries module

Also maybe save the blog page under a users name so they can share the blog with other people www.mysite.com/blog/myname as an example

Also it works great creating a image gallery but again i would like to see a user upload a gallery and have it linked under a category www.mysite.com/gallery/myname.

Please bear in mind i have only user mojoportal for a week or two and have not done extensive development or custom pages etc...but already replaced it with two of my current sites for ease of maintenance. I know with some custom development i can do it, i just thought this might be a good standard feature.

Once again it is a great standing product..and thank you

Re: Smart Simple Blog / Image gallery site users

Hi,

Using extra segments in the urls like /blog/ and /gallery/ is not supported, see this document:

http://www.mojoportal.com/search-engine-optimization.aspx

you can use blog-myname or gallery-myname but not /blog/myname and not /gallery/myname

Images need to be uploaded in the editor if you want to use them in the editor so there is no point to adding a separate image upload button since then there would be no way to position the image within the content.

I do plan to add support for attachments so you could upload an mp3 or a video to make a the blog support podcasting or have download attachments, but these files will not be used inside the editor.

Best,

Joe

Re: Smart Simple Blog / Image gallery site users

Hi Joe, in this same topic, we have 2 blogs set up for authenticated users, and have added respective roles for each of the users. However, when one of them tries to upload a picture they are having permission issues.

Does an admin have to specifically set up a folder for them? Do we need to add them to one of the Content * roles?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeff

Re: Smart Simple Blog / Image gallery site users

Upload permissions are managed from Administration > Site Settings > Security > Permissions

users don't need to be in Content* roles but the need to be in a role that is allowed.

Hope it helps,

Joe
