Topic Password Protection

[Adriano Faria]

About This File

This plugin will allow users to create topics using password to protect them. This plugin uses cookies to store the encrypted password.

Areas covered:

• Topic
• Topic preview popup on forum view
• Activity Stream
• Search results
• User Content
• RSS: topics with password are excluded from RSS feed

Settings:

• Groups allowed to create topics with password
• Groups allowed to read topics without typing the password
• Which forums can have their topics created using password
• Log topic password actions: add a password, edit the password and remove the password
• Number of days to expire the Cookie

Note:

• Due to the rework on plugin (every new resource has to be done from the scratch to run on  IPS4), a new purchase is required. Thank you for your understanding.

True. It was done on 4.0.X. Something must have changed in 4.1. Let me take a look.

Sorry. Bad bad day today. I'll take a look on weekend.

@Adriano Faria Please take a look finally For now plugin doesn't restrict all ways to access to protected topics. All content are visible through users' activity.

Also I believe there is some kind of error in version: on marketplace it is 2.0.1, in XML it is 1.0.1.

[Adriano Faria]

Ok.

[Safety1st]

The best behaviour I believe would be show normal content for users with cookie and show lock icon with words 'content protected by password' for the rest

That is exaclty what always happened, as you can see on screenshots. I'll take a look to see what has changed and fix it.

[Safety1st]

That behaviour was from the moment I bought the plugin:

• uses activity in profile

• in any activity under example.com/discover post/topic is absent at all.

Yes, I already understood that there's a issue there. You bought the plugin on 02/27. It was releaed on Sep/2015! See, something has changed! It wasn't released with that issue.

[Safety1st]

@Adriano Faria I'm sorry, no offence, just to clarify. Last version was released 02/26

I've just noticed another bug. There is an ability to set a password to any topic in certain forums regardless of the option 'Use Password in'. I use IPB v4.1.11.

Edited May 1, 2016 by Safety1st
any forum -> certain forums; didn't find the regularity

[Adriano Faria]

What's New in Version 2.0.2:

• Fixed content visibility of protected password topics on Activity Streams
• Fixed permission check (add/edit/remove password from topics)

[Safety1st]

@Adriano Faria I just installed v2.0.2 as a new plugin. The main problem (visibility under activity) is gone. But plugin shows 'Password' menu in any forum topic created be me. Although I'm not able to set password in any forum except listed in 'Use Password in' option. Is it desired behavior? I believe the more sense to hide 'Password' menu where function cannot be used.

[Adriano Faria]

Not, this is not the expected behaviour. I'll take a look.

File reuploaded. Update your install.

Since no one else downloaded this latest release, version kept.

Now everything is cool
Thank you

If there are images uploaded in a password protected topic, are the images protected also?  Can I just navigate to the image in the folder if I haven't entered the password?

Thanks
