Hi Adam, I was wondering the same.
I took a look, and the folder is protected by a htaccess file, and the htaccess file has a lot of code which seems like it only permits access via S2 membership….. I think therefore it should be pretty safe in so far as non-members being able to access it, but maybe the admin or someone else here can confirm…..

I’d also like to know whether the links are disguised, as a further safety method…?

Also, I think you could create “conditional fields” for accessing your sensitive downloads, and then only members with those conditional fields added to their memberships could get access to them….. hope this helps you.
Regards, Karen

(and if you’ve added some extra fields such as phone, country, website etc, and you needed all this additional information exported as well, then I imagine that you’d just do the same as above but for the S2 member database tables…….as they will be storing all that additional info – the wordpress user DB tables will just hold the default WP fields data……)

Hi Tim, Dave is right – the pro version has export capabilities built in.

…….. But of course, if you can’t afford to purchase the the pro version yet, then in the meantime there’s always phpMyAdmin……. (log-in to your web server, then >> phpmyadmin >> your website database >> users>>export …and then just select the format you need, such as “CSV”, or “CSV for Excell”, SQL, ,etc…… sweet eh? ).

It’s also a handy way to backup just parts of your database (and to do entire site backup, just omit the “users” step).

Regards, Karen
