=== Download Protect === Contributors: webprodigy Donate link: http://www.pulsedevelopment.com/development/download-protect/ Tags: Download, leeching, protection, security Requires at least: 2.7 Tested up to: 3.01 Stable tag: /tag/1.2.0/ == Description == This tool allows you to encrypt download links, protect against leeching, and hide downloads from non-members. Non-members would see a predefined replacement text that will default to the global option specified in the settings. Users specify a download directory in the settings, and add links to your posts using the wysiwyg button or the following shortcode: [dlprotect file="yourfile.mp4" visibility="private"]Link Text[/dlprotect] The 'visibility' attribute is optional, and so is the Link text. The plugin will work with defaults using [dlprotect file="yourfile.mp4"]. When visibility is 'private', this file will have an encrypted download link for members only, and non-members will see the replacement code you specify in options or in the tag content. NOTE: Requires PHP5 If you have any questions or suggestions, send me an email at: info@pulsedevelopment.com. == Installation == 1. Upload `download-protect` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress 3. Set options by going into the admistration panel -> Settings -> Download Protect 4. Enter your protected directory. This directory is relative to your server, so it gives you the ability to store files below the web root - adding further protection if desired. 5. Change the Download Encyption Key. 6. Enter the replacement text for non-members. 7. Choose the default visibility. Public will display the encrypted download link to all visitors. Private will only show the link to members, showing replacement text to non-members. 8. Enter the default download link text. This is the text that will be linked to the protected file. == Frequently Asked Questions == = What can you use it for? = Protecting your private content downloads from non-members.
