Download restriction

I am fine with putting download files in the area for the download restrictions to work but I need to restrict in the same way web links to the same site can that be done I know I can save the site page and upload it to the download area and that seems to work but as the site also converts to mobile it seems to just put up desktop when I do that so please help can I put some kind of code before the link so it restricts?

Thank you for your inquiry.

I’m very sorry, but I’m not sure what you’re asking here. You said you’re looking at s2Member’s Download Options, but “need to restrict in the same way web links to the same site can that be done…”, what do you mean by that? Are you trying to restrict specific URLs on your site? You can do that with URI Restrictions:

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› URI Access Restrictions

Hi my download is a page on my site so just a url but I need to have it in the download folder for the download restrictions to work ie 1 per day ect. I have sort of got round it by creating a pdf file with the link to the page on it as an icon and that is in the download folder and that works but is there a better way or easier way?

I see, so you’re attempting to use s2Member’s Download Options to restrict a Post/Page once a day.

I’m afraid I can’t really give you a solution for this, s2Member’s Download Options weren’t intended to work this way. The only way I can see you achieving what you’re looking for would be to have a developer set up a timer on your Post/Page to achieve what you’re looking for. s2Member isn’t capable of it.

That’s ok as I said it works the pdf way and it’s restricted so I have worked it out myself but if anyone asks now you can say create a pdf and put link in or you can copy url into safari download and that creates a htm file that you can put in download but that doesn’t work with wptouch the mobile plugin I have it just puts it as a desktop and not mobile veiw so that didn’t work for me but would if anyone was not using mobile switching.
