Community Builder integration
Posted: 31 Jan 2009, 18:39
Hi Jan,
I saw in another forum topic (on PhocaGallery) that you are having doubts about the usefulness of integrating Community Builder with the Phoca components, modules and plugins.
Let me give you a very good and very usefull reason:
Showing (or enabling) access to galleries or downloads based on the value of one or more Community Builder fields in the user profile.
This would e.g. allow download sections (or galleries) to be activated only for members, or paid subscribers, or teachers, or ...
You could e.g. have something like: (Show folder and enable downloads) if (user ismember of "educational staff" AND user ismember of "second gradeteachers")
You see, possibilities are endless for the users of your components if you could have a CB integration.
BTW: Love your components. Commercial quality.
Cheers,
Ingmar
