I have a situation where I want to store documents in DMX and want to allow unauthenticated users to download them if given a download link. I DO NOT, however, want to give them the ability to browse-for or search-for documents - only to download them if they have the right link.

How would I do that? I thought about making a DMX module visible to All Users but I think that might allow them to browse and/or search.

The link can be constructed quite easily and using a template you could do this. The link directly going to download points to Download.aspx in DMX's module dir and then you need to feed it the portalid and entryid as parameters.

The second part is disabling browsing which becomes more complex. In fact browsing is going through various folders. It all depends on how you want to show what is available, but there are several ways to approach this. You could display a single folder and just not show any folders. This is what the Shortlist addon always did. If restricting to a single folder is not an option you can see if you can restrict to a single category. But you'd need the category set in the querystring for DMX to pick it up.

Hope this helps a bit.
