PD-Download Anti-Leech

I noticed with EVERY one of the download modules on here all allow for the direct link to the file. There is a hack for the WF-DOwnload system, but you need a server for that (not a host) and I dont have one. So, could it be possible to somehow make it so it never shows the REAL link to the file?

Here is the link to the module im talking about:https://xoops.org/modules/repository/singlefile.php?cid=86&lid=1633

I really hope someone can make a mod directly do this so it doesnt show it. I would REALLY appreciate it very much if someone could.

Thank you for your time. And sorry if this is not the correct place to ask.

PD-Downloads and WF-Downloads in their preferences have this option:

Disallow direct download linking? (leeching)

Do you mean that?

Thanks for the fast reply!

Well, if I turn that on, I cant use URL's to add my files...I need to use URL's because I already have all the files uploaded to the server and uploading again will waste much time. Not to mention, 2mb limit, and alot of my files are above 10mb.

Is there a way to have that on, and still use links to add files?

Thanks again for the quick reply.

well, I don't know a technical answer, I can just tell you that I have it set to yes and when creating a new download I use an URL and the download works, I've never checked if the anti-leeching is actually doing it's job or not

Alright, I understand.

I turned it on, and added my site to the list acceptable, hoping it would go through. It does. But, it still doesnt work.

When you click the download button, and you get sent to the download page w/license, it should say something like:

[image] Download in Progress
Your download should start in 1 seconds...please wait.

If your download does not start, Click here! (this Click Here! button gives the direct link...thats where I cannot have it give the link).

Any ideas? I do appreciate it.

Er, I cant seem to edit.

Ok, I figured it out it was in the visit.php file. I just deleted a few lines and its fixed now.

Just so I dont spam the forums, anyone know how to make the "ranks" be available in the list to download permissions? Like when you create the download file, you chose the groups that can download...well can the ranks also be added in that list too somehow? I want the downloads to somehow be more controlable by how participant the members are.

Thanks in advanced!
