    Hey all,

    I was just wondering if any type of Grabber(s) can access the protected files using aMember?

    In more detail, if the aMember script is running and currently protecting downloadable files/folders for those who haven't purchased a certain product (via the aMember script) can a Grabber access the files?

    So the question again: I was just wondering if any type of Grabber(s) can access the protected files using aMember?

    Thanks.

    If they are logged in, they can grab the content.
    If not logged in, amember is protecting it.

    So, if they're logged in they can grab all the downloadable content onto their hard drive? Is this only for the products they've already purchased, or can they also grab content which they haven't purchased? I appreciate your response. ;)

    Kind regards.

    They can only access files that their purchased membership allows them to.

    The grabber can only access what the user's membership access will allow.

    In other words, if they can't see it, neither can their software.
