Sessions

The roleSessionVar is a session variable name that CKFinder must use to retrieve the role of the current user. {{{code1}}}

To switch between different user roles, change the session variable: {{{code2}}}

For more information about using session variables refer to the [[{{{link}}}|Sessions]] article.

Example 3

In your {{{file}}} file you can create three different roles.

First role is assigned to every user (wildcard * is used): {{{code3}}}

Second role defines a registered user: {{{code4}}}

Third role defines the administrator: {{{code5}}}

With the above settings you have created three different user permission sets. The default user (everybody) is allowed to browse all files and folders. A registered user also has the ability to upload files and create folders. The administrator is granted full permissions.

Now suppose you have an authentication mechanism somewhere in your Web application.
