Description
Groups File Access is a WordPress plugin for controlling who can download your files. It restricts downloads based on user group membership and integrates with the Groups plugin to provide protected file areas. It also tracks downloads and applies group-based access controls for document distribution.
Key Features
- Group-based file restrictions – Downloads are limited to users who belong to the appropriate group, so only authorized members can open the files.
- Groups plugin integration – The plugin connects with the Groups plugin, so your existing group setup drives which files each member can reach.
- Protected file areas – You can set up areas of files that stay closed to anyone outside the permitted groups.
- Group-based access controls – Access rules are tied to groups, letting you manage document distribution to authorized users.
Who Is It For
This plugin suits site owners who distribute documents or downloadable files to a defined membership and need to keep those files away from everyone else. It is aimed at WordPress sites already using the Groups plugin to organize users into groups, such as membership or community sites.
