User private pages with an instance of cobalt.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

You want artist to add artwork but no one see it? Only partners and only those artworks that artists allowed.

For example there artist 1, 2 and 3 andthere are Partner 1 and 2, and every artist have 3 artworks.

Default state

1. Artist 1 and 2 cannot see art work of artist 3 and so on... I mean artists se only their own artworks.

2. Partners does not see and artwork.

Scenario

Artist 1 set partner 2 to see his artwork 2 and 3. And this is only visible artworks for partner and other partner 1 cannot see any artwork yet.

is this what you want regarding rights access?

Yes. The basis here is the artist will have their own private area when they sign up then login. This will be a self managed area with predefined categories. Here they should be able to have up to five pictures of there artwork and then some fields they can add data to and a category selection.

Only the artist can see their own artwork by default state.

The next area would be for partners in a predefined mile wide radius to get an alert once the artist basically checks the different items they want to approve for showing and hits a button that says show artwork. This would give the partners the ability to login then see the artwork.

There should be some sort of toggle for the artist as well where they could unselect one or many pieces of artwork to make them not viewable once they sell them or just simply need to take them down.

That is all possible. All you said (at least as i understood this).

There is only one exception. If artist make artwork accessible to partner, it became accessible by all partners. There IS NO possibility to make Cobalt article accessible only for particular individual.

That would be ok too :) would it be possible that an email goes out to the partners when the artist makes the artwork available?

Right now I am thinking on status field. There is parameter custom SQL query on status change. We may configure so that when artist set status available, artwork accesslevel change to the one partners can read. Another thing we of course can send notification to all partners, also in that custom SQL. And then automatic mail alert will send list of notifications on the site.

So it is possible.

Even if now, I'll extend status field and I'll make it possible. :)

How did it turn out?
