Topic: Is there a way to allow other people to upload media via an account?

BradleyByerly04 priority asked 4 months ago


If I wanted to make a section, where select people could upload media, like mp4s or mp3s to a page that other people could view, is this something I could accomplish with MDBootstrap or would I have to look elsewhere to achieve this?

And if I wanted to create like a resources bit attached to the main file that was uploaded?

Reference Below This here is what I'm trying to achieve

Basically if you were to click that resources button it gives you the option to download the media itself, but also download a PDF of the sheet music as that is a song, is this in anyway possible and it be setup somewhat similarly?

You can accomplish this with MDB but you need provide some backend to store files.

I'm assuming it would just be the file upload plugin used?

File upload plugin is just a file upload overlay that provides a nicer look. But by itself it will not upload files to the server. Please take into account that we are unable to provide such functionality because each server will have a differently API. We are unable to predict which endpoint will be responsible for saving the file on the server in your case. You create the endpoint and we don't know what it will look like. In this case, you get a tool that allows you to add a file to the file input using drag and drop. But you have to handle submit yourself and create logic that will send a request to the appropriate endpoint on your server and save it.
