When members are able to create content from the frontend I need a backend user to create the documents inside my usercontrols. How do you guys manage this? Do you create a user called "frontend member" or something, create the document with it and add the member name as a property to the document?
To create a user for each member seems senseless. Or is there a way to create a document in the name of a member?
No, you cannot create a document in the name of a member, as members and users is total seperated.
I have done both of your suggestions on the member sites I have developed; having a generic "frontend" user only used for creating the document, and then having the memberID as a property for reference.
On another site with a limited of members, I have set up an event creating a user every time a member is signed up (needed for Canvas editing), and then use that one.
