Can I add permissions and only list files available to the user?

Permalink
This looks like a promising add-on for my purposes.

Is there a way to add permissions to individual files or file sets and then only show files to the user that they are eligible to view?

I realize that I can probably set permissions on the page that contains the file list, but that wouldn't stop someone from sending the actual file link to someone.

Thanks!

Does the developer have an answer to this?

We're preparing next version release of the addon soon, permissions will be revised there. I'll write a detailed comment on it later here.

Thanks!

So how do permissions work now? I know C5 let's me set permissions on a file set, but what will this add-on do with those? Will it list the files regardless of permissions and rely on C5 to prevent unauthorized downloads?

Currently the addon doesn't worry about permissions and fully relies on concrete5 regarding it. It just searches for the files based on criteria defined in the block options and outputs the list of links. Each link is a link to /download_file/ default concrete5 single page. concrete5 checks for 'Readable' permission and asks for a password if it is set for a file.
