I'm going to create a (my friends) portal community where every users'll be able to have his/her own gallery, creating own category, own links directory, own audio/video casting, own forums, own books, own blog, etc..
I initially thought to a multi-installation system but in this way i had to enable manually every user (and it'll be more heavy) so i discarded this option. I though there's some way to do this and maybe some access control module will enable me to let users being indipendent from site administrator to, what i mean is:
- every user have an own blog as username.domain.ext and i solved it with .htaccess + wildcards server side
- have their own image galleries/categories/weblinks/podcasting/forums, my need is that every users will be able to create and edit his/her own galleries/categories/weblinks/etc.. but other users will not be able to add, edit or delete it (user Adam can't edit Betty's categories/albums/links/etc.. and vice versa)
- [[ useful but not fundamental ]] let some galleries, categories, etc, being visible by friends of users only or by everybody (I mean let community users give permission to Gallery1 or Forum1 to being accessible to Friend1 and Friend2 and permission to Gallery2 or Forum2 to being accessible to anonymous users)
i'm trying acidfree for galleries but can't understand how doing this... on taxonomy/category don't have any idea
i thought to OG but I think it's not the right solution, it would complicate too much the structure and I don't want create a multi-community site..
my idea is going to create something like motime.com / splinder.com where every user is independent from others and (possibly but not essential) paths will be indipendent too: eg mydomain.com/username1/gallery, mydomain.com/username2/gallery (better username1.mydomain.com/gallery and username2.mydomain.com/gallery, but I'll work step by step :)
an autonomous system where administrator haven't to take part to life
hope being anough clear
i know it may be complicated but i'll be grateful if anyone will be able to help me :)
