With the plugin WP DISPATCHER you can create an temporary and secure download link for your file uploads. Your uploads are secured in a special folder. The secure download links are created by shortcodes which you can use anywhere. Every shortcode call generates a new download link so be cautious where to use it (best suited within automatic emails).
<ul>
<li>Create temporary download links for any file </li>
<li>Automatically expire download links after a time limit limit </li>
<li>Know how many times the file has been downloaded.</li>
</ul>
First upload your files to a secured folder. Then generate expiring links to your protected uploads. Usage with wp shortcodes.
Caution: Files are protected via .htaccess. This works only in LAMP environment with Apache as Webserver.
