protect downloads with uploads module [solved]
Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2014 2:32 pm
Ok,
i'm trying to protect some downloads from direct linking.
I'm using the FrontEndUsers and Uploads modules.
all i want is to upload a file to the Uploads module in the admin.
and then place a link to that one file on a protected page.
I created a protected page,
created a category in the uploads module ("Company documents")
uploaded a file to this category ("testfile.pdf")
Password protect the upload dir by .htaccess
the simple question i have now is:
How do put the protected link on a content page?
What is the correct tag to use?
I read the documentation, and tried lots of thing, but i must be missing something
