Hello Rob, I originally had all my PDF Tutorials encrypted and password security to open them. Keeping tab of passwords for many tutorials (even though I had the passwords in my Keychain) was a bit of a nuisance. So I decided to password protect my site instead.
I'll give more thought on how to allow access to the tutorials. Thanks again.
