Question Visibility of attachments and image for guests

Hi
In version 1,5x and 1,6 koonena introduced and gave us
the tools (visibility of attachment and image for guests)
unfortunatly there has been a few problems,and I would like to see
if these issues can be solved.

1. when user through login is granted access to download links,
user can copy link and give a way to a non member and without logging in and still
access the file,video..etc ???


2. When saving a single link in PDF format and links are saved in PDF as well....
is there no way to solve this issue?


I would appreciate any help admins or users can give me regarding
the 2 issues above.

Users can copy file links and give them to other peopleWell, yeah, that's a problem isn't it?

I think it's important to keep in the back of your mind that Kunena is a web-based discussion forum product. Even though you can restrict access to the discussions, you can't prevent your users misusing their privileges to pass information in other ways. The features built into K 1.5.12 and K 1.6 merely hide attachments from those who are not logged-in; that is to say, if you are not logged-in you are not able to see the link to the attachments. But if you could find the link to the attachment then you would have access to that attachment.

The solution to this problem lies in webserver security. You can apply security via other software - you might even be able to do something with the .htaccess file - but I don't know how it's done.

When saving a single link in PDF format and links are saved in PDF as well I'm sorry but I don't understand the connection between this statement and Kunena. Can you provide more information to help me understand the issues better, please?

Hi @sozzled thx for reply:)

please look below link:

any idea?

Thank you. Very good demonstration of a Kunena 1.5-related issue. There isn't any PDF function in K 1.6 so your second question (about links in PDF files for K 1.6) doesn't apply.

I think that we'll have to take this question on notice (at least as far as K 1.5 is concerned) and come back to you later.

I will be waiting for answer
