Allowing only members to view video files

helf08 posted 14th of March 2008 in Community Voice. 11 comments.
I have tried all possibilities to disable this , I want only the members to view the video files. In admin panel , the Bulider section - View File I deselected visitors but this only removes the video player for visitors. Is there any other way to restrict viewing files only for members ?

go to admin/settings/Membership Levels/
click on none members then click on DELETE next to the options you dont want non members to use.

to put it back, just choose it from the drop down menu and click add action

ps
if you are talking about dolphin then this should be listed under the dolphin heading no ray,
ray is for the standalone widgets used on non dolphin sites.

i was just looking at my installation of dolphin v.6.0.0005 and it is somewhat different from v.6.0.0003 in that the admin section has more control from a membership actions standpoint. if you are not running 6.0.0005, then i can look at an installation with v.6.0.0003 and see what the dealio is on there back in a few........----->

ok made it back, it doesnt appear that v.6.0.0003 has the option to disallow the use of your videos and music files. strange, but thats the deal.

i am using see more ad-free v.6.0.0003, and
v.6.0.0005 free. the free installation is the one where it has some different membership actions which i think are what you are looking for. contact me if you need further help.

disable the free-mode, create the memberships that you want to have on your site, i say disable as i presume you are trying to run a paid site. these features are upsells, and you can set tiers of memberships so you can increase you overall ROI. if you need further help let me know, possibly i can login on your admin and get you going. the non-member and the standard member are the two defaults that come pre-loaded. i would prefer myself to limit the features available to non-members, which would see more encourage them to register on the site. once they have registered, this will then allow them some access, would suggest allowing full access for a set number of days. this is the attraction point for the user to actually purchase the upgraded membership. if you need further assistance let me know.

Thanks DosDawg, but i have disabling free-mode.
On my website have 2 membership: Standard (free) and Gold (pay).
For this membership i have 2 different setup, and work fine. Is no possible delete non_member and replace with visitor without permissions?
Thank you

use the navigation builder (under builders in the admin menu) to disable viewing of the menu items you don't want people to see that are not logged in.

Then edit the homepage builder and do the same. Only allow items to show to registered guests.

My entire homepage has no menu at all until you log in - there is a login box, adult content warning, and thats all you see except the banner until you join and log in.

Thank you Streder, I have already made this menu change, but my problem is one other,
I would want that only the pay members can see the video and not the free registred guest (Standard members)
