I have a directory with floorplan files, each file has a store number. I would like to have a store click on a link and have it only show that stores file from the directory.
I’m looking for ideas on how to have the form display the floorplan from a directory based on the store number.
Any thoughts.

Is the “store” logged in or is a user logged in? Once you have some key to determine the store number you should be able to use computed text to build the url to the file. Something like
URL = “/floorplans/”+StoreID+“.jpg”
Post more details if this isn’t what you were looking for.

We use the IP address of the store to create a location field. So i have a key. and that’s exactly how i was thinking of doing it. my problem is that the dept used the store # then the store name and i don’t have a key for the store name. but we have a view that contains all the stores information such as name and number so i’m think of doing a look up on the view to return the store name then have it build the url as you mentioned.
Thanks for the advise.

A single-category embedded view is one easy way to go.
If you want security between stores’ data, you want Reader fields, with a group and a role for each store.
