I think some of my HTML was removed when I pasted it into Disqus, but hopefully you can see what I was doing.

Hi Greg, I am a bit new to this type of ditto setup and I have setup your structure as outlined above but confused as to what I should input in to the TPL chunks for: directoryFolderTPL, DirectoryPageTPL and directoryTopTPL. Any examples you can share?

Thanks so much!!

Thanks Greg. I have a situation where I do not want different managers to have access to common documents. That is why I saw in your technique the security of separate containers. But at the same time with many managers I would have a separate article folder for each which seems awfully inefficient.

I haven't actually dealt with trying to limit access for managers in this technique. It sounds like you may be asking me how do you accomplish this using Michael's technique in which all the documents “live” in a single container. In that instance I would probably refer you over to Michael.

In my technique I would assume you could tackle it by using a master group that all managers belong to and thus have access to the parent container of your directory. That way they can all “see” the parent (you could then use ManagerManager to keep them out of this document). Following that you could then allow them to access only the “category” directories at the next level that you wish.

Hope that helps!

Hi Greg, I am looking at your and Michael's solution. I can see the beauty of putting all articles/documents in one place, but in your solution you can assign manager users I believe and I do not see how that is done in Michael's. Unless I am missing something. I like the idea of putting all articles in a single container and controlling by TV, but in my current project how do you allow different– manufacturers in my case–users (managers) only access to their own articles to add and edit if I put all documents in one place. It seems much more complicated.
