Hi everybody,
(I'm running Umbraco 4 - latest version)
I have created a document type which uses the mediapicker to select a swf file in media/flash/[allSwfFiles.swf]
Then I have created an Umbraco User as Editor, setting only "content" as visible section.
When this user try to create a page based on the above document type, he can not access the media tree. If I select both 'content' and 'media' as visible sections, the issue is solved.
But I don't want my editor to be able to create medias ! He should be only able to access media through media picker to pick up an existing file (he should not be able to create, delete o modify the existing ones)
How can I solve it ?
Thanks for your help.
You could create an action handler see this blog post see at bottom the table of events you will need to handle media event either new or before save and check user type then stop the creation.
Thank you Ismial,
The topic is surely interesting but I'm more a designer than a coder, so if there is no way to do this without coding, I will take the risk and let my editor access the media folder (keeping my fingers crossed).
Regards.

How Can Handler helps in this?
The Handlers fire up subsequence an event...
I think that we need a new type of mediapicker...
Bye
