Help needed with these
Hi all
I posted a question in another thread and it's closed now but I still need some help with the following:
Question: When I view the Results & Details pages I can see the Update & Delete buttons, I presume these should not be showing as anyone could alter or delete the records, how do I sort this?
I take it that these should only be available to the client for adding more listings?
Answer: To protect the update and delete pages, you would need to use security assist, using security assist you can create a login form for the admin to loginto, and restrict access to the update and delete pages so that only a logged in user can access them
Security assist also offers a Show region utility, you can use the security assist show region utility to only show the update and delete buttons on the results page if the user is logged in.
Sounds straight forward enough until I started to try it.
I noticed on another thread while searching for any idea how to sort it that there was a bug, supposedly fixed which was showing the Delete & Update buttons, is this the same bug.
To be honest I thought that this would be a drop in solution, didn't realise that so much had to be changed or learned and didn't count on it taking me over four weeks either.
Is it a good idea to use these on basic pages and then insert the code into the page which is going to be used?
Can anyone please help with this, also how to add my own thumbs and images and finally how to let a user log on and enter details and images?
Is there any instructions I could follow, they would need to be very simple?
Help very much appreciated
