I am building a website for a client that wants users to be able to login, so they can upload videos and access user only content. I have never built a website that allows users to login or upload anything. What are some different ways to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Sam
Use a CMS such as Drupal. It has fine-grained access control lists to handle what each user can and cannot do and the fields API in Drupal 7 can be used to create the video upload easily.
A bigger question I would be asking yourself with video is do you have enough bandwidth and server horsepower to supply video reliably back to the users?
Thanks for the info, Chris. Regarding the server, I’m not familiar with that end of things. I use GoDaddy hosting for most of my websites and plan to use them for this one as well. Also, can I use drupal in a site that is already built or do I need to build the site in a way that is compatible with drupal?
Thanks
I don’t think you can post videos on this forum, but don’t quote me on that. Do you have a video that contains useful information for me? If so, is it on the web somewhere?
