Hi everyone

 

New here, not sure if I should be posting here or not. If not, apologies.

 

I need help with a small content-based website I'm developing. I've got plenty of programs and scripts on my server to help me with MASSIVE content-based sites (PHPNuke, Joomla etc etc) which are great and I'm using easily.

 

However, they are TOO big.

 

Basically, what I do, I'm a drum teacher and I want a place for my students to be able to log in and download recordings (mp3s) of their lessons which I upload to the site the day after their lesson. I only want them to be able to access their own lessons. I also want them to be able to download other mp3 files of drum parts they are learning with me (I record me playing to a song they like, slow it down, solo it etc so they can hear what's going on).

 

I tried with a simple Javasript login script and, while it works well, is just not secure enough and does not let me manage content, obviously.

 

The way I see the site working is the main site is accessable by all who want info on my drum lessons, so some basic SHTML pages with simple, standard text. On every page I want a login box (hence SHTML and SSI) for my current students to log in and reveal their own page with links to their own content. I will set up the usernames myself. I do not need people to be able to create their own accounts, but I would like current users to be able to update their details etc.

 

I create a site almost like what I needed with Joomla, but I couldn't make it so only certain users had access to certain files, nor would it list them in one easy place, NOR would it tie in with my SHTML pages  ::)

 

ANY help, of a link to the correct forum to post in, would be very very very much appreciated.
