Hi there,

is it possible in the free version to set the default access rule? We would like to have the default behaviour that only registerd user(groups) may have access to the downloads.

In addition to that: not only the download file itself: even the html/php should be secured while using the download manager. We use wp-member as a plugin for setting up groups and users.

Or ist the default access setting only available in the pro version?

Thanks in advance,
Stefan

Hello Stefan,

Thanks for contacting us.

Currently you need to set every download package for specific user roles.
For adding default access we have another plugin below:

WPDM Default Values

Kindly check that. It may be needed for you to use default values for download packages.

Regards
Tanvir

Hello Tanvir,

thanks for the quick response. Is the 49$ an annual fee or just one time? I can’t see this at the plugin page.

Thanks and best regards,
Stefan

Hello,

All of our products update annually.

Those will be auto renewed after one year.

However, you can cancel the auto renewal anytime but in this case, though you will be able to use the plugins, you will miss the updates and pro support.

Thanks

Hello Tanvir,

just one feature request for all versions of the download manager: due to security reasons (security by default) it would be good if the default value for the access rights to a new document would be “none”. I think most people who use the downloads manager have in mind to restrict the access to a document.

If now an editor forgets explicitly to restrict the access rights, it may be a security problem if suddenly the documents will appear without any restriction or they may appear in the google index.

Just as a suggestion for further versions.

Thanks and best regards,
Stefan
