**Possible Or Not?!?**

Permalink
I have to create a web portal where contributors can upload content in the form of PDF's & multimedia files. The uploaded files would normally be in bulk & not necessarily one by one.

The files would then be accessible to certain subscribers based on login credentials.

In addition, an e-mail needs to be sent out once or twice a day to the subscribers informing them of content added which is relevant to them with a link.

It doesn't need to have a fancy front-end & probably will only require a username & password.

Any help or advice regarding this would be much appreciated!?!

As my old boss used to say, "anything is possible when coding". But on the other hand this will require some logic and you will need to make a block that can handle multiple uploads at one time. (There could be one already created on the marketplace, i dont know). Server changes might also be needed because of the size of uploads from users.

You could have subscribers based on groups or with a custom attribute.

Email sending is easy with a cron job.

Concrete5 already as the sign up page built in.

Well these are my opinions, let me know if you need any more help or advice.
