Firstly just like to say hi and thanks loving netjukebox !!

Is there a way to share a download without opening up the entire server

I have noticed that shared download links work only if the user has "complete download access"

If i remove user download access then it fails to authenticate

Is there a workaround for this or do i need to use a seperate server/ftp etc

Kind Regards

Yes you can share a single album with "Share download" in the album view.

Thanks For The quick reply

I know i can send a link but it means that the user has to have access rights to download the entire server as far as i can see

ie; if they click on the link, yes they will get the album i have given them the link to

But if they log into the server as anonymous guest etc they can download the entire contents, not good

when i remove download access from anonymous guest etc i get authentication failed when using the link provided

ie its all or nothing as the Small Faces would say

Kind Regards

The created link will work without a user login!
So there is no need to give the anonymous user download rights!

Ah i see it all becomes clear Thank you!

Is there any way to change this behaviour in the script so as it expires after say 24 hours

i have 5 band members and wanted to post a link to each

or is the way round this to generate new links for the same file(s)

Thanks In advance

PS i was pulling my hair out


Kind regards

It is possible to created multiple links from the same album, after creating a link with "Share download" you can go back to the previous page and create another link with "Share download", etc...

Thank you wbartels much appreciated

Finally, I take it there is no way to amend the script to alter this ie extend timeframe on a single link

Kind regards

Sorry for the extreme late reaction.
I don't think that Facebook blocks the link.
But lookup the link (to checking undesired content??) before placing it.
This first lookup wil already expire the shared album.
