user with image and text data

[y_12]

Hi,

I have a requirement that a user on the site need to have some image and text data. Those images and texts were added by dragging and editing sidekick components to the page. I wonder what could be the best way to achieve this.

Thanks and regards,

Yy

Have a look into Identity Management [1] where profile page can be created and custom field can be added.

Also take a look into same available in Geometrixx Media as well.

Hi Edubey,

In my case, the user can click a button to add some image and text data to his account for future retrieving. Besides Identity Management, do I need to create some tables and do querying to persist data on JCR ?

Thanks,

For this - i would setup the JCR to store nodes that store user data, either text or images. You would need to store and retrieve user data in the AEM JCR. You can use the AEM JCR API to perform this.

In AEM component, data automatically gets saved in jcr unless you delete component or data ( which I am assuming you wont be doing) . In your case create a component to add images and text, put it in profile page, thats it.

User will author it, and data will remain in JCR.
