Document & Image Request
Module name: doc_img_request
Default instance name: Document & Image Request
Example(s):
Description:
This module allows a website client to manage document and image requests from their customers. Customers may consist of advertisers, news journalists, public relations personnel, etc. who wish to download print-quality images or documents related to the website client's specific business.
A gallery is populated by either the client or an administrator of their choice with images and documents with descriptions. For images, this module automatically calculates and displays the mechanical specifications of the image so the customer may choose the appropriate size and quality they need for their specific project.
This module can be customized to only images, only documents or a hybrid of the two.
Website clients or designated administrators manage customer access, approval of requests and has complete control over add/edit/delete options for any request. Settings are available for determining how long a request is available for download. Automatically generated email notices are in place for:
- notifying the customer when an account has been created and where to log in to make their request order
- notifying the client when a request has been submitted
- notifying the customer when their request has been approved and how to download their order
When a request has not been retrieved by the customer within the allotted time, they can notify the client of this and the client can re-activate the request.
The Document & Image Request Module was modeled after the Gallery Module. As such, all documentation related to the Gallery Module is also valid for the Document & Image Request Module. Therefore, the topics of adding/editing Categories and Images will not be covered again here.
