    Hi everyone!! HAPPY FRIDAY!

    I am going to be in need of a simple script. I hope there is a free one out there, or perhaps i could get my company to pay (cheaply) for someone to design one for us. Here is what i need:


    our company puts out a 'buy list' every month. This is confidential to all of our competitors and right now we are using simple password protected PDF files so our clients can do to our site, download the PDF and put in the password. This is not secure enough.

    I need a script that will:

    A: Let me set up as many user accounts/email addresses & passwords on a certain page to our site so that we can provide a unique log in to each of our clients... When they log in, it brings them to a private page where they can download the PDF files.

    B: Anyone who tries to direct link to the PDF files will not be able to download without logging in.

    C: We need a way to see how many times per month each of our clients is logging into the account to see the buy list.

    D: I need to be able to make monthly changes and updates so the page points to the new pdf files.

    I know this is a pretty simple script. There might even be something out there for free. I am new to all of this, sorry.. I do marketing for my company but i am trying to expand into helping make changes to our domain. Let me know. Thanks!

    are you running a vb forum? if so, you can include a subscription service to it that you can moderate

    IowaDog has a thread on this site for a very reasonably priced membership script that might do exactly what you want.

    He may or may not be willing to config it for you.

    My script is a full blown membership script.

    Here is the cheap and fast way to protect your files.
    This may or may not be the way to go.
    Put the files you want downloaded into their own folder.
    Then password protect that folder through your cpanel.
    Then give the username/password only to those you want to download the files.

    Your stats in cpanel will then tell you how many times it was downloaded.

    Dawg,

    He needs your script. He wants each user to have a different password.

    Then he wants a report on how many times each user visited the site. I don't know if your script does the frequency report or not but I bet it does.

    It was very nice of you to try and help him for free.
