There was a topic, I swear, that was talking about subscriptions and stuff, and building your own digital libraries ... the topic discussed having digital libraries, and how to prevent people from just saving the URL and going back in. The response was along the lines of "we'll prevent people from doing that if it's the digital library area in the store, but if you want to prevent people from zooming to a URL on your website, contact us for a script"

And I piped up and said, "Me, me!!"

and now I can't find the topic, the replies, nada.

Did I just breathe bad air and imagine the whole thing? 'Cause I really do want that script, pretty please?

Bill,
I think that there's actually two separate forum topics that you're looking for. Which explains why it may be so difficult to track them down.



Topic 1: General questions about the Subscriptions & Memberships module
http://www.modularmerchantforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=143

This topic talks about subscriptions, protecting your subscription content from eavesdroppers, and the potential for a custom script to protect subscription content.



Topic 2: Create a Digital Library your customers can subscribe to.
http://www.modularmerchantforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=201

This topic discusses using the digital delivery system to mimic subscription behavior. This topic may also contain some of the information you were remembering.

Is this the information you're looking for? If not, just list your specific questions here, and we'll add new posts to answer them. Very Happy

Under the first one, I've extracted this quote:

(from about 2/3 of the way down the page)

Quote:
The second option fits your scenario: protecting a directory on your own website, separate from the shopping cart's built-in member's area. This is possible, but your website must be able to run a script we provide you. This script requires your website to support two things: The "PHP" web-programming language and "Zend Optimizer". These are both common webserver components, and are standard features of most web hosting plans. The provided script will allow your website to connect to your Modular Merchant shopping cart and check a members subscription status when they attempt to access the protected directory. If their subscription is invalid, their access to the protected content on your site is denied.


This is what I was looking for - I need that script.

Pretty please?[/quote]

Bill,
No problemo. A Support Ticket will be started in your account containing a link to this script and instructions on how to use it. I have sent a reminder to our developers to have this Ticket created for you. (As it is currently after hours, this Ticket should be posted in your account first thing tomorrow morning.) Let us know if there's anything else you need!
