Hi All,

This is my first post here and i'm definetly a Umbraco junior. I was luck yo to discover Umbraco about three weeks ago and am so glad i did. Its a fantastic tool and I'm curently updating my own website to use umbraco.

I was looking for some help witih a new project. I need to add a job board and members gallery to the site.

I have a fresh install of v3.03 and have installed the creative web package, the updated members controls with the edit profil page, the auto form, and rss feed.

I've already got the templates for the a gallery, but how can I make it that a user has to register before they can post their picture in the gallery?

And also i wondered what people think would be the best way to implement a jobs board. I was thinking i could modify the new & events templates to create a grid view for the list jobs page.

Unless there is any better packages that anybody can suggest.

After these two the next task is to imtegrate Yet another forum.

Looking forward to the final beta of v4 in September.

Anyway thanks in advance everyone.

Tom

Question: Is this a page that everyone can get to or only members? If you want to allow only member only access to a page you can right mouse click on a node in the content tree and select public access.

Who is going to be allowed to add new Jobs?? Members Anonymous users or just the administrator who logs into Umbraco?

I would create document type's Job Board and Job Listing. On the the job listing document type you can create properties such as Company Name, Position, Job Details, Salary etc and then on the Job Board document type you can create a XSLT macro that loops through the Job Listings and displays them.

If you want to allow members to post jobs then look into the Doc2Form package.

Thanks,

Hey Matthew,

Thanks for your reply. That sounds good about the jobs board, people would have to register to post jobs but anybody would be able to look at them. Which would be the same as the gallery anybody can view but you have to register to post your picture adn description.

I've never used the public access part of it yet, will have a look at that.

I've never heard of the Doc2Form before, where would you find that about?
