Client Files Plugin

[Rene]

How would this work:

I've modified the code in my test site to work like this:

When logged in, the plugin checks for a page with the slug "clientpage_<client name>" and if it exists, displays the content for that page before the file list.

I've created a page (using the normal page manager) with the slug "clientpage_test" which matches up with the ClientFile named "test". In the page options I've set it to "private" so it can't be viewed in the front end at all.

Try it at at my testsite: http://testbed.cartocopia.com/clientarea/

(I have created a page for "test" only, so logging in a test2 displays nothing as the page file doesn't exist)

I can make this "official" and update extend if this would be worthwhile.

To try it yourself find this:

Code:

//
      // display list of client files
      //

around line 500 and insert this above it:

Code:

//
      // display client page if it exists - slug is "clientpage_<client name>"
      //
      $userpage_file = GSDATAPAGESPATH . "clientpage_" . $client . ".xml";
      if ( file_exists($userpage_file) )
      {
        $userpage_data = getXML($userpage_file);        
        $clientfiles_content .= stripslashes( html_entity_decode($userpage_data->content, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8') );
      }

@RobA: Thx, for the excellent plugin. Changed the code to show personal client page, but it's not working for me.
My client login name is 'Klant' (Dutch for Customer) but slug of client page is automatically saved to "clientpage_klant". Can that be the problem?

I also want that the customer can add files himself, what are your thoughts (security / other ?) about that?
