Page B shortcode used

[fileaway showto="administrator,google" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver" directories="on" manager="on"]

[fileaway directories=true sub="fa-usermeta(product_no)" showto="normal"]

Directory Structure at wp-content/uploads/

documents

	Nexus 5
		Datasheets
			Some files
		User Guide
			Some more files

	Nexus 6
		Datasheets
			Some files
		User Guide
			Some more files

Accessing Datasheets Page, directories under eragon-files/ are viewed and not under documents.If I change base dir to wp-content/uploads/, it shows all the folders

Am I still missing something here ?

Current Base Dir 1 – wp-content/uploads/eragon-files

Page A shortcode to restrict access based on product_no selection by user while registration

[fileaway showto="administrator,google" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet"
heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver" directories="on" manager="on"]
[fileup sub="Eragon 600" showto="administrator" makedir="true"]
[fileup sub="Eragon 410" showto="administrator" makedir="true"]
[fileaway sub="fa-usermeta(product_no)" showto="normal" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date"
theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver" directories="on"]

google-files
	Nexus 5
		Some files
	Nexus 6
		Some files

Here if user has selected product_no Nexus 5, then it can access only Nexus 5 directory and its files

Page B existing shortcode where two files are listed for Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 but need to show based on product_no selection

<strong>Nexus 6 Datasheets</strong>
<a href="http://google.com/wp-content/uploads/Nexus_6.pdf">Download</a>

<strong>Nexus 5 Datasheets</strong>
<a href="http://google.com/wp-content/uploads/Nexus_5.pdf">Download</a>

The directory structure for above could be something like below

documents

	Datasheets
		Nexus 5
			Some files
		Nexus 6
			Some more files

	User Guide
		Nexus 5
			Some files
		Nexus 6
			Some more files

When user click on Datasheets Page, he can only access those directory based on product_no selection. Same goes if he selects User Guide page.

How do I achieve above ?

Sir,

I can add multiple base directories. But website has more than 5 pages where I would add base directories. What should be done in case where more than 5 directories are needed ?

Thanks

As you said above I tried implementing below code. Also there is a brief overview on what is happening.

While registration, user will select either of the value from dropdown. Option value is with space i.e. (Nexus 6)

<select tabindex="10" class="form-control login-field" data-toggle="select" name="reg_product_no" id="reg-product-no" required>
  <option value="" disabled selected>Product Number</option>
  <option value="Nexus 6">Nexus 6</option>
  <option value="Nexus 5">Nexus 5</option>
</select>

Once registration is done, above value is stored as User Meta Data with name Product Number. Thus if Nexus 6 is selected from dropdown, prod number
will be Nexus 6. Here user role will be ‘normal’.

The shortcode I am using is as below. Files are already uploaded under folder Nexus 5 and Nexus 6.

[fileaway showto="normal,administrator" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver" directories="on"]
[fileaway sub="fa-usemeta(product_no)" showto="normal" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver"]
[fileup sub="Nexus 6" showto="administrator" makedir="true" maxsize="500"]
[fileup sub="Nexus 5" showto="administrator" makedir="true" maxsize="500"]

If user with role ‘normal’ logs in and if value selected is Nexus 5 (no space), how do I show him Nexus 5 folder only and its relevant files and
do not show Nexus 6 folders and files.

I am still struggling to restrict folders based on user role and value selected.

Directories are created using below code only. It shows me two directories/folders Nexus 5 and Nexus 6. Both contains few sample images uploaded.

[fileaway  showto="employee,administrator" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver" directories="on"]
[fileaway sub="fa-usermeta(product_no)" showto="normal" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver"]
[fileup sub="Nexus 5" showto="administrator"  makedir="true" maxsize="500"]
[fileup sub="Nexus 6" showto="administrator"  makedir="true" maxsize="500"]

Also I have two users with me, one with role employee and another is normal. When I login as normal user with product_no = Nexus5, it shows me both folders Nexus 5 and Nexus 6

Considering above question, tried this one but its not working. Normal user can not see either of the directories.

[fileaway  showto="employee,administrator" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver" directories="on"]
[fileaway sub="fa-usermeta(product_no)" showto="normal" type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver"]
[fileup sub="Facebook" showto="administrator" makedir="true" maxsize="500"]
[fileup sub="Google" showto="administrator"  makedir="true" maxsize="500"]

Not sure what I am doing incorrect here.

@thomstark, user having email domain [email protected] or [email protected] will also select either options from dropdown. But they will be assigned same role say googface for both users i.e. facebook and google.

General users like [email protected] will also either options, but their role would be normal.

Now use having role googface can access each and every directories but user having role normal can access either of the directory(facebook/google) based upon their selection from dropdown.

How the code [fileaway sub="fa-usermeta(googface)"] will work with below

[fileaway type="table" paginate="true" pagesize="10" searchlabel="Search" datelabel="Date" theme="silver-bullet" heading="Software Package" hcolor="silver" directories="on"]
[fileup sub="Facebook" showto="administrator" makedir="true" maxsize="500"]
[fileup sub="Google" showto="administrator"  makedir="true" maxsize="500"]

This is the code where I list down folders and when you click on any of it, it shows relevant files.

[fileaway type=”table” paginate=”true” pagesize=”10″ searchlabel=”Search” datelabel=”Date” theme=”silver-bullet” heading=”Software Package” hcolor=”silver” directories=”on”]

[fileup sub=”Facebook” showto=”administrator” makedir=”true” maxsize=”500″]

[fileup sub=”Facebook” showto=”administrator” makedir=”true” maxsize=”500″]

[fileup sub=”Google” showto=”administrator” makedir=”true” maxsize=”500″]

[fileup sub=”Google” showto=”administrator” makedir=”true” maxsize=”500″]

How do I modify above to create a Base Directory or a Sub directory as instructued and paths should be

path/to/files/goog and path/to/files/face
