Hi! This is more of an PHP MySql problem.
I'm working on this site and I want it to deny download access to
everyone who is not registered to save bandwith,
I installed a fourm with a database whats the best way to make this work?

Thanx

i use smf, here: http://www.myk750java.co.nr

in smf, you can set this option in the permissions panel, im sure there might be something similar in phbb, try to go to your administrative panel, from there you can set permissions

phpBB2 does not support downloads by default, I was just told by the phpbb support team member?! any other ways to make this work ?

depending upon the number of downloads, you can always create a forum just for downloads

or see this (http://www.phpbb2hacks.de/dload.php?action=file&file_id=122)for a download mod

at first i also tried phbb for my forum, but using their forum is a problem, it is not easy at all.

if you eant to install a mod in phpbb, you'll have to do some coding and loading one file here, the other there and so on.

i recommend you use smf for your forum, its excellent, the attachments and permissions are already pre installed and the mods are easy to install.
