I have set up DMX to run for a group of registered users. The users can upload files to the site after they have authenticated in DNN. The page containing DMX is visible only to registered users.

Now I want to share direct download links to unregistered users. They shall have direct download access to single files via the http-link without opening DMX and neither logging in at DNN.

How is it accomplished?

Thanks

Chris

Peter,

thanks for the information. Programming is not a option because I want a product ready to be used 'out of the box'.

According to the anonymous downloads I have set up a quick workaround.

- create a tab visible to anyone and place DMX with an empty view template

- this will render an empty page but with a running instance of DMX in the background

- mark the tab id (in this example id 120)

- go to the tab where you have placed DMX to be used and available only to authenticared users.

- change the view template, named 'ItemTemplate.resources' and modify the download link as follows:

  ...href="[Portal:PortalAlias]Default.aspx?tabid=120&EntryId=[entry:entryid]&Command=Core_Download" style="display:[entry:isfile|block;none]">
     [entry:originalfilename]...

This link will use the dummy DMX on tab 120, which is indeed available for download to any user - also anonymous downloads. If a file required authentication, dnn and dmx will handle it still properly.
