Prohibit File Download

[yerg]

Looking to block download of files
This may be site wide or specific user/group
Doesn't matter for now.

--- edit ---
out/out.ViewDocument.php is the way to go here but only partially

The popup window gives additional tools to allow the file to be downloaded.

Hmmm back to the text editor

I'm thinking out/out.ViewDocument.php is the way to go here but may be wrong.

out/out.ViewDocument.php isn't enough. It just outputs the links to the download page op/op.Download.php. Somebody with some knownledge on how letodms works could easily access the document anyway. If you want to reliably prevent somebody from downloading a document you will have to do it in op/op.Download.php.

The idea isn't bad and it raises the question whether the current access restrictions could be extended by a 'download allowed' option. IMHO, this would be the most reasonable way to go, but I doubt it is easy to accomplish. Access rights have a given order of 'no access', 'read access' and 'write access'. 'download' should probably be between 'read' and 'write'. Internally the access rights are stored as 1,2, and 3. So, adding a new right requires reordering and lots of changes to the database content.

Was just digging round in the files and looking for the download files so thanks for that.
