How does this compare to, or alter, the previous method of password-protecting uploads? Running 2.1.x, I've been using the method of 1) setting $EnableDirectDownload to 0 in config.php, and 2) having uploads/.htaccess with: Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Now I've upgraded to 2.2.5, and looking over all the 2.2.x changes, I see we have http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/UploadVariables#EnableUploadGroupAuth, which says: "Set $EnableUploadGroupAuth = 1; to authenticate downloads with the group password. This could be used together with $EnableDirectDownload = 0;." I'm confused -- if I'm already setting $EnableDirectDownload to 0, what does EnableUploadGroupAuth do? Is the difference some change in the file uploads/.htaccess? Instructions at http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/SecureAttachments don't reflect any change, other than to add a "See Also" link to http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/UploadVariables#EnableUploadGroupAuth. Thanks!
