When a file is set to "freeToGroup", the button "Buy Now" will change to "Download". This is good. I like it.

However, when the button is "Download", the browser status bar will show a detailed URL like link. This is less secure because an experienced user may be able to access these files if he can figure out the file name etc.

This does not happen when the button is "Buy Now".

Is there anyway to change this behavior, i.e. to hind the URL like link even if the button is "Download"?

Thanks.

Hi there,

You are worried about the files that are not free or you don't want to show the filename at all?

The files that are not free can't be downloaded even if the filenames are known. These links are not direct and are still processed trough php, the real file path is not shown. It might be a good addition to an update though, to have those filenames encoded, no one requested it so far but I'll keep that in mind for a future update.

Thanks
