Title: Public can view Downloads but cannot actually download.
Post by: alkemica on 28.06.2023 12:42:59
Hi, in the manual i found this option: Public can view Downloads but cannot actually download.
But i don't found the way to setting this option. If i set a category or a file as restricted to Registered user, if i view the category without login, i don't see files and not show any message that invite me to login.

Thanks

Hi.
Briefly:
1. the download (and its category) should be publicly accessible in that case
2. but the download permission is set to only to 'registered'

But whether this is so easily possible depends on the current global permissions setting.

I will try to find an example in the documentation, because it is not so simple and short to explain here.  ::)
