I am attempting to setup the IMCE module (in Drupal 6), so that the user is permitted to manage files within several directories, based on the Roles that user is a member of.
Example: Jimmy is a member of the two roles: Team Directors; Drupal Geniuses
I would like to be able to set the paths in the IMCE module to display and let him manage those directories (under the site's files root of course).
Currently, i have a php snippet that will allow me to set user's default IMCE folder automatically by role, but only be a single role. This is part of the way there, but my concern is for several users who need to be able to access and manage files in multiple directories.
Here is the code snippet, if it helps at all:
php: foreach ($user->roles as $role) { if ($role != 'authenticated user' && $role != 'test role') { return 'roles/'.$role; } }
This is placed in the Directory path field on the IMCE Profile configuration page. Basically, it looks at all the roles the user is a member of, and then ignores the pre-set roles that I don't want them to have access to (the authenticated user role and test role). Then it returns the directory, which in Jimmy's case would be the IMCE file root... /roles/Team Directors
It works great for one role, but i haven't figured out how to iterate though each role an account might be a member of. This has to scale to different users who may be members of different roles, and may be members of many more than 2 roles.
Any ideas/solutions would be much appreciated.
