Feed from secured conntection ( Wordpress + Amember) Is this possible?

Hi, I post new content in my secured wordpress membership area every day. Each post have new products premium members can download from. However, I would like to expose my content description/info to the search engine, but block my download links. How can I do so, when amember is protecting it. Also, I would like to provide a wordpress feed from a secured connection? Is it possible? Please I've tried to get this done for years.

I see that http://www.indigitalworks.com/ have been successful doing this with Joomla and aMember. Therefore, I should be able to use Wordpress and Amember to do the same. Checkout their feed here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/InDigitalWorks/385845050890?v=wall

Note: Currently, I protect my wordpress installation via new rewrite protection. However, if I have to change then I will. And My store downloads in the same folder where I have wordpress files.

You are protecting the full directory with amember folder protection- so search engines cant get in. You need to change your protection method from a walled garden to the magazine model.

Hi Dave

"You need to change your protection method from a walled garden to the magazine model." What do you mean by this statement?

-Thanks

A walled garden is when all the content/site is protected using htaccess etc.. nothing can get in. Magazine model is when you allow some access to the pages, but only teaser. You use a plugin like amprotect to acccomplish this.

Thank you David. However, I have 1,000 post. As I recall, with amProtect I would have to specify the post each product id have permission to. That would require a lot of manual work. Unless, there is a global option. Nowww.... I've protected download directory, and unblock the main members area from new rewrite protection. Now, the public can view site, and view post. However, when they click " download here", they are redirected to members login. I would be set, if I can just have the words "download here" say "To download, you must register or buy a membership first" for non-logged members. Any other alternatives?
