Was hoping to get some direction/advice on using the file manager (DAM). When a user is using a module, like dnn events for example and chooses to upload an image, they are presented with all of the files in the file manager. While they may not have permissions to upload to this folder they see it none the less. Within this list there is a folder called MyFiles. This folder is contains all the files specific to the user which is perfect. But it not displayed in the file manager. This serves my purpose as I only want users seeing their own files but how do they delete these files?
Here is my dilemma. I use the ckeditor which has an option top create a subdirectory for each user. So each user has a subfolder under a parent folder called Userfiles. Of course I can't hide this folder since then the user will not be able to upload images using ckeditor. But as you can imagine with a lot of users, all of the folders are then exposed to others when uploading an image within a module.
So how can I hide all folders except the MyFiles folder and still be able to manage Myfiles in the file manager?
Hopefully this makes sense and hope someone can let me know how they effectively lock down all uploaded images/files to a specific user.
Thanks.
