Guest and User Searches

Post by jddev »

Hi,

I am implenting your phpMyFAQ for a tech support group. I have a feeling from looking at the code that I may have a good deal of modifying to do, however I would like your opinion on this.

The current FAQ DB in use, which is extremely sloppy, has the ability to allow guests to browse "public" FAQs (~250 currently), while tech support personnel can search through both "public" and "private" FAQs (~400 total). I expect the total number to grow over 1000 relatively quickly also (it seems more like a knowledge base really).

What would you recommend doing to achieve this?

Thanks in advance,
Jason Hobbs

P.S. By the way, excellent work you've done here. Thank you!
Thorsten

Hi Jason,

such a feature is planned for the near future. It should allow "guest" to view free records and should allow admins and registered users to view all articles based on the current user administration. I plan to add this in 1.6.

I' would like this option also!
Is is possible to implement this in next version already?
(seems not zo hard... add value to each reccord: public or not?)
And option to login...

Keep up the good work!

Hi,

it is a little bit more difficult because when we add this feature we want to do this good. But since there are so many requests for that this new feature will be the main part of phpMyFAQ 1.6.
