Download Monitor Advanced Access Manager

Sites that sell or share ebooks, courses, PDFs and other digital products need a way to decide who gets which file. This extension adds that control to Download Monitor. You create access rules from one central place, with no coding needed, and apply them to individual downloads or to every download on the site.

The rules cover user roles, named users, IP addresses, usage limits and date ranges. That makes it possible to offer usage-based plans or download allowances instead of only time-based memberships. It works with membership and content restriction plugins, supports multisite networks, and fits eLearning platforms, membership sites and digital storefronts.

Features

• Limits by role, user or IP: Build detailed rules that restrict downloads for a user role, a specific user or an IP address, so each file reaches only the people you intend.
• Global and per-download rules: Set restrictions that apply across the whole site, then override them on any individual download when a particular file needs different treatment.
• Usage-based access control: Restrict downloads by the number of times a file is downloaded or by specific date ranges, which supports flexible subscription and purchase models.
• Membership plugin compatibility: Works with popular membership and content restriction plugins, so your download rules can sit alongside the access setup you already run.
• Multisite and network support: Functions on multisite WordPress installations, so you can manage downloads across the sites in a network.
• Central rule management: Manage every access rule from a single location through a user-friendly interface that needs no coding skills or technical background.
• Document Library Manager listings: Compatible with the Document Library Manager downloads listing, so restricted files can appear in a document library layout.
